We even had a view of the ocean from our balcony which was unexpected. Mark and Jack were very friendly and helpful. Their staff was also very nice and did a great job. It... More

Jack and Mark were really welcoming and helpful, with lots of good tips for restaurants and places to visit. Our room was very comfortable (inc. big TV and lots of channels), breakfast was excellent and the pool area is a great spot to relax. Really good service and top value!

I have to say I was so pleased with the amazing service and friendliness of the people at Manaar House. It was a pleasure for myself and my partner. Thank you to Jack, who was a superb host. I only have one issue though... They should be rated FIVE STARS, not four!!!

Mark, Jack and Brendan are the best hosts we have ever come across, with their local knowledge and genuine care and attention to detail. They were always available for questions/friendly chat and offered help daily. The self-catering accommodation was excellent - spacious,... More

Manaar House is a lovely, relaxing place. Our stay in suite 4 for 6 nights was most enjoyable. Compact yet comfortable, the air-conditioned suite provided a kitchenette, super bathroom / shower plus an inviting private patio, perfect for that well earned sundowner. Jack, Mark and Brendan are excellent hosts, attentive and friendly whilst offering local knowledge on restaurants and things... More

When I booked the accomodation last October it was through Trip Adviser reviews but I must admit it was with some trepidation. Need I have worried? Not in the slightest!

We stay at Manaar house for a week over the busy Christmas holidays. The place was lovely and has everything you needed. The deco is very upmarket and apartment was really comfortable.
