One of my favorite places we stayed. So cozy and beautiful flowers and gardens.
The villa was somewhat rustic, so it wouldn't appeal to everyone, but it was clean, quiet and comfortable. We appreciated having a kitchenette, loved the setting and grounds, the convenient location, and the restaurant. It didn't feel touristy at all--just what we wanted!
Great location! Not having an a/c was a little rough with how hot/humid it was but with the windows open and the fan on, it was manageable. The staff was very friendly and even made us meals-to-go on our last day since we would be missing breakfast!
