Charming Garden Bungalows

“I absolutely loved my stay in one of the garden bungalows. The private verandah outside my bungalow made for a perfect setting to relax among the palm trees. The room was well-fitted with a small kitchenette that included plates and cutlery, making it easy to enjoy meals in. It was very clean, and I appreciated the cozy vibe it came through with.” view full review
