The house was great with everything you need to feel comfortable and even some extras (outside shower, sitting area with mangrove view. The garden is paradise with lizards, crabs, flowers etc. Everything is beautifully maintained and the housekeeper was nearby in case of any incidents or questions. And of course the proximity to the beach and mangrove was great.

The property is gorgeous! We had a lovely stay here and the villa is super nice and has everything you would need! It even has security at night and a cleaner every day. Judi was super super nice and helpful all the time throughout our stay. We were unsure at first about sharing the pool with the upstairs property but it’s super chilled and we barely saw the other couple so it was perfect!

Extremely friendly and helpfull owner. Only 2 units to rent, so it´s quite and private. It´s a short walk to the beach. It´s luxurious, private pool is small but well designed. Definetely worth the price. Equiped kitchen available, so self catering is possible. Wish we could stay longer.
