Great stay near Kabalana beach
Pros:

We really loved the location and street the hotel is on. Close to yoga, cafes and Kabalana beach. Definitely glad we stayed in Kabalana and not the main Ahangama town area. The rooms were generous and comfortable.
Breakfasts were some of the best we had - loved the yogurt and fresh fruit and iced coffees every morning.
Owners were friendly and easy to deal with

Cons:

Hot water was at times hard to regulate
Noise could be a problem if other guests aren’t mindful, we didn’t have a problem during our stay but I do think the pool needs to have a closing time as rooms are so close to the pool with glass frontages

It’s ok!
Pros:

Los chicos estaban muy atentos y eran amables. Te resuelven cualquier problema. Baño amplio y cama cómoda

Cons:

Hay muchísimos insectos. Si te toca el bajo, frente a la piscina es muy difícil de controlar, pero tuvimos lagartos, hormigas, moscas, orugas y arañas

Stupendo!
Pros:

La struttura è molto accogliente, la camera è spaziosa, pulita e profumata.
Colazione e cena molto buone.
La gestione è a conduzione familiare e sono tutti gentilissimi e molto disponibili. C’è la possibilità di affittare i motorini da loro che è il modo più comodo per girare e spostarsi tra le spiagge.
Ci hanno anche aiutato a organizzare il tour per vedere le balene ed è stato fantastico, ne abbiamo vista una vicinissima!
Assolutamente consigliato!

Cons:

Unico neo è la colazione un po’ tardi, dalle 8.30 alle 11.00. Ma c’è la possibilità di organizzarla un po’ prima su richiesta

Beautiful place, friendly staff.
Pros:

Jini and her family are super friendly. They are always there for you to help with whatever you might need. You can rent a scooter directly with them or otherwise, they are happy to organize you a TukTuk. The room is pretty and spacious and cleaned every second day. Breakfast is quite big, although it can get a bit repetitive on longer stays.

Cons:

It would be great to have more “common area” to chill or read a book; the couple of sunbeds that are there appear to be for 1 room only as it is directly on the entrance to the room.

A toilet/shower on the common area would also be great to rinse after a surf session before going into the room.

Ruhiger schöner Ort
Pros:

Ruhige Lage, nur 9 Zimmer und sehr freundliche und hilfsbereite Gastgeber.
Das Zimmer war groß und mit einem bequemen Bett ausgestattet. Der Pool lädt zur Abkühlung ein und im kleinen Restaurant kann man sich mit Speis und Trank stärken. Im Essbereich steht ein Kühlschrank, worin für die Gäste ein Fach zur Aufbewahrung persönlicher Sachen zur Verfügung steht.
Vor dem Hotel sind immer Tuk Tuks. Man kann sich auch einen Roller ausleihen.
