The grounds: immaculately kept with lots of "private" areas where you... More

It is a small hotel with a very nice garden and good restaurant in a safe neighbourhood. So you can actually go out walking with minimal hassle. And you will get good advice from fellow travellers and hotel stuff what to do. Hotel has an extensive library.

This is an amazing hotel within an incredible country. The owner, staff and other guests were so happy and it felt relaxing from day 1. The new decking on the beach is... More
