We needed somewhere to spend the night near the airport. We are so happy we chose this place. The staff was absolutely amazing, and the owner, Mama Kiota, is an incredible person. The property is huge and has an amazing garden and pool. The food was excellent. They were also kind enough to let us use the room until our flight later in the afternoon, even if we were supposed to check out in the morning. Everything was perfect!

2 bedroom flat, close to the beach (a 10 min walk), super close to lovely supermarket and a couple of eating options (cafe in the supermarket and a restaurant next door with a small playground). Easy to get bolt/uber from this location. The actual flat was a little run down but considering the price it was value for money. We couldn't figure out the shower and were missing a couple of things but staff were helpful and sorted us out. We were there 4 nights and Hans sent a cleaner after 2 nights to clean the flat (they did a great job) which was much appreciated. He also let us check out late as my flight wasn't until 4:30pm. Overall, a good place to stay if you prefer your own space and a bit of freedom. Great location. Pool was also a plus.

Location is good but maybe next time the host could be kind enough to give details on how to get there when contacted as most of the local transport Bajaji were not familiar with the place.
