What our guests says about facilities

Experience a variety of amenities at the boutique hotel, crafted to ensure your comfort and unforgettable moments

Spacious & Modern Room

Our room was downstair, opening out onto the pool terrace with our own private decking and loungers. It was cool, clean, and minimalist in style. The details like USB ports and neat storage solutions made it very accommodating. The semi-open plan bathroom was unique, and the overall feel was both luxurious and comfortable.

Stylish & Functional

The bathroom featured lovely toiletries and a great rainfall shower that made our experience feel incredibly luxurious. Despite a window that provided some exposure, it was a refreshing experience that really suited the boutique feel of the hotel.
