The property is so well curated perfect blend of modern aesthetic with traditional furniture and furnishings. The owner is so sweet and goes above and beyond to make you feel at home. Another highlights would be the open bathroom, I still dream about it today. The property is very clean, filled with beautiful furniture and antique details from the owner's family, he has kept everything in pristine condition for the visitors to appreciate and enjoy. The breakfast was delicious and their home dogs were super friendly too.

The host is so open hearted and was constantly available. Even when I had problems with the police, he came to help me without me asking for it. He did it selflessly. He gave us a lot of tips for our trip and alltogether spent a lot of his free time for us. His wife as well. I wish them only the best.

    Love this place, relaxed vibe, clean, comfortable rooms, lovely friendly, quietly attentive staff, good food in a fantastic roof terrace restaurant, lovely spaces to hang out. Our host could not have been more accommodating or kind. The location is perfect to catch sunsets and sea breeze and an easy walk to sights, shops & cafes. Monkeys, iguanas, kingfishers and the hilarious crows hanging out too (not in the property!) Everything you'd want of a guesthouse. Highly recommend

    The room was super nice, quiet, and with the air conditioning always comfortably cool. Ravi, the host, takes very good care of his guests and makes you feel very welcome. Breakfast is served on the balcony with a lovely view and includes a wide variety of fresh fruits, tea, toast and so much more. The guest house is perfectly located as it's close to everything you could want and need. All in all we had a wonderful time and can't recommend the guest house enough.
