The staff were friendly and accommodating—they let me check in early and arranged airport transfer, which was a big help. The villa was lovely, with a comfortable bed and a great swimming pool. I was only there for a short layover, but it was the perfect place to relax and recharge.

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.
