The lodge, nestled in beautiful surroundings, is ultra clean and well equipped. The garden is beautiful and has wonderful birdlife. The beach is a short walk away and is magnificent and private - a hidden gem. The staff is friendly, helpful and super-efficient. I had breakfast each day which was delicious. I had a lovely, peaceful holiday and will definitely return

We opted for a cabana this time which was very comfortable for too. The garden is still beautifully kept and it is very pleasant that the accommodation is a short stroll from the beach. The kitchen was well supplied with equipment and utensils. The staff are very friendly and helpful. Just be aware that cell phone and wifi reception was almost non-existent which was not a big problem for us as we just wanted to relax, but could be an issue if you need to be in touch
