From the moment I arrived, Beba upgraded my room which was grest as the ocean view was fabulous. The room is spotless clean. Very elegantly decorated. Staff were very helpful. The villa is gorgeous. A few meters away from the beach. The private beach made my stay fantastic and ensured privacy. The pool was just the right spot to disconnect from the world. Breakfast was delicious and portions were huge. India and Gold ( the dogs 🐕) were definitely a huge plus. I loved their presence and played with them. The entire experience was very unique, authentic and relaxing 😌 I highly recommend it 👌 as a solo traveler, this felt do safe. Thank you Beba for taking care of things and understanding.

At the bed and breakfast, each unit comes with a desk. There is a private bathroom with walk-in shower in every unit, along with slippers, a hair dryer and free toiletries. Guests can dine in an outdoor dining area at the bed and breakfast.

This is honestly one of the best places I've ever stayed, I didn't want to leave! So relaxed and quiet with wonderful staff (especially Seline). Your stress levels just disappear as soon as you arrive! Swimming pool was a great way to cool off after being out for the day. The room was big and comfortable, no mosquitoes. Food was delicious! It is a mile or two from the beach but you can get there in a tuk tuk easily. The beaches and snorkeling are stunning and Gedi ruins are also well worth a visit.

    The private pool is amazing and the place was quiet and calm. We didn't get a chance to meet the owner but there was milk, tea, and coffee for us and lots of cold water in the fridge. The distance from the town was not really a problem, and the kitchen is well equipped if you want to cook.

    The location is wonderful and gives a complete feeling of disconnect from the world outside. From the moment the gate is opened you can see the luxury design of the house and the 2 accommodations at the rear of the compound are secluded and very private. It was bigger than I was expecting from looking at the pictures and has everything you need to cook your own meals if you choose.
