“The hotel was located centrally - getting around the area was easy.”
“Rinas (manager) and his staff are very friendly, honest and helpful people!
Quiet place but centrally located with direct access to a nice beach!”
“Aarish was so attentive to every detail making my stay perfect.
Room was clean, good size and comfortable bed.”
“Central location near restaurants, beach. Quiet location. Pool area nice and aircon/fan was effective.”
“Attention to detail was insane, it was always really clean. It was perfect to get out of the business of town for a few days”
“I liked this hostel because it jas a great vibe and is close to the beach (2 min walk) It has a few private rooms and one dorm so its not the biggest, which i like. The room is only with single beds and is quite big. There is free waterrefil and the restaurant (buddies cafe) is a nice place to just have a chill or get some amazing food! The people are also very nice and will help you all they can. I stayed here 4 nights!”
“There were three options for breakfast - 1. avocado with eggs on toast, 2. Pancakes with banana and treacle, 3. eggs, toast, jam. All were well prepared and served with tea/coffee. Owner is excellent, accommodating and goes out of his way to help you. Room AC worked well. The beach is a 45 sec walk away.”
“I had an amazing stay at serenity surf house. The garden is beautiful to sit and relax in. There is also a BQQ setup in the garden which is so nice to have friends over in the evening. I really enjoyed the self catering set-up. walking distance to town and the beach, honestly couldn't have asked for more. The place is also brand new, super clean and has everything you need.”
