Staying in Freddie Mercury’s childhood home was special. It is a really beautiful apartment and on top of that you get use of the facilities at the hotel. I only had one night but it will definitely stay in the memory bank!!!

I like the property of many reasons. It’s location is perfect, it’s near to everything, such as an ATM machine, the ocean, many restaurants and cafes, even a bakery and the hospital and the city center, without being in the very center of everything. It’s beautiful and quiet, with its old fashioned decoration with African crafts and art together with the Islamic influence of the culture. Well kept, beautiful lamubeds for example in the room and with a truly authentic feeling…good healthy breakfast with nice service, good management of the place together with a very good staff. The rest of the crew are also very nice friendly polite and helpful. It was a little bit on the expensive side for me, but still with good value for the money.

The Villa is a jewel. it was saved and restored from a nature that was literally claiming and swallowing it back. The White Villa stands Out from its beautiful green garden but without being intrusive with nature. The garden and the Door Collection absolutely deserve a visit. the room was really well designed and furnished. you have really the feeling to be in a small bubble suspended out of time.
