“Clean rooms, excellent food, beautiful gardens and efficient service”
Very nice, secluded location. It's on the edge of town, away from the beaches, but this allows for sprawling grounds and gardens filled with beautiful vegetation and a good size swimming pool. The food is excellent, the rooms are large and clean, and the bathrooms have good plumbing. Wifi worked fine too.

“Home away from home!”
It was a home away from home! Agnes and her team took me in and cared for me, gave me tips, and fed me. The room is very spacious and pretty. I loved to have my own seating area infront of my bungalow although I preferred to sit in the main area on a couch cuddling the dogs.

“I would give 11/10 if I could!”
It’s a perfect place: clean, spacious, green and calming. Everyone is super nice and helpful, makes you feel like you’re at home. Food is made to order, always delicious and portions are enormous. You can go for a massage or boat trip with beautiful sunset view. Atmosphere helps to relax and unwind, it was an awesome experience 😊
