    I loved my stay here and it had all the amenities I needed. The room was exceptionally clean and I appreciated the welcome sweets on the counter. Also, it was easy to do the self-check in and I had asked for a coffee plunger and that was already...

We have attempted to make the most use of space and bring in light. We have not wanted to clutter the rooms. We have optimised on the views bringing in sea and mountain views where possible. We have added many extras that are often overlooked. These include providing international plugs, Nespresso coffee machine with capsules and many other extras.
We love to travel and have been to many countries around the world. We especially enjoy the East and love beach holidays. Having traveled extensively, we know what the frustrations of travel can be and we try eliminate these for our guests so that our guests can enjoy their vacation to the fullest.
Our neighbourhood is very safe and being high up it has excellent views.
