Welcome place especially uf you have a small pet travelling with you

We were made very welcome by the hosts. We were so relieved to find this place being animal friendly. Very clean and everything you need for a short stay. Very cute garden and lovely that we could bbq as well. Felt very at home here as we stayed in the family suite with my frail mother and my brother. Very secure property too. Love the elephant theme!

I liked the fact that I was upgraded to a more nicer room without having to pay more money. The pool was available for use. The area was very quiet. We were allowed to check out later than usual. The owner was also very friendly.
