Bring your own cleaning tools...
Pros:

Good things first: The owners are nice, the location is best (apart from the praying sounds from the temple). The rooms are spacious.

Cons:

The rooms are not clean. The toilet stinks and has not been cleaned for weeks. The drain is not working (sandy feet can not be cleaned outside, so the shower drain gets stuck). The room still feels incomplete.

To be frank: I think the owner can easily survive with the money he gets for the rooms without caring to much what people think about the place. Arugambay is popular and also places like his get enought bookings for the price the owner asks. Sitting on the balcony I was thinking about what a oportunity gets wasted here...

Hidden gem!
Pros:

Beautiful little oasis just behind baby point, run by a local family who are just lovely! Great quiet village experience while being 200m from the main swimming beach and main surf point! Staying again!
