Great hospitality!
Pros:

Very nice and spacious accommodation. There is a nice pool and a wonderful garden where you can relax. It’s 500 m to the beach and some nice restaurants & warungs. For breakfast we recommend to go to Mojo Café that is only 200m away. Also there are shops nearby as well as an ATM. Owners are so very friendly and helpful. Great hospitality.

Lovely, affordable stay in a hidden gem!
Pros:

Our second stay here, such lovely hosts! Always so welcoming and friendly and remembered our children from our last visit. Pool was lovely and clean. Such a wonderful location.

Cons:

The beds were quite hard :( and I feel the bathrooms could do with a bit more of a clean.

A beautiful property at great value.
Pros:

Cute, clean, self contained villas situated on lush green grounds amongst tropical fruit trees and numerous exotic flowers.
Swimming pool and lotus pond add to the appeal.

Cons:

The only thing I didn’t like, is that I couldn’t stay longer.
