Great budget place to stay, nice staff. Wildlife around , access to beaches and 4 giant Tortoise living on site, which were friendly.
Good size room with attached kitchen with microwave, kettle, fridge. Small supermarket next door which sells beer 😀and microwave meals, parking is on hotel grounds, shallow beach opposite.
We only stayed one night before our flight and the apartment was great for us. Well equipped and large. There was no aircon in the living room which was uncomfortable but the ones in the bedroom worked well. Staff were friendly.
Room was perfect, better than expected. We stayed here for only a couple of hours as we needed a placecto stay before catching our flight back home so we did not get enough time to appreciate the entire place. Very happy though.
The flat was smelling so bad, old and completely dirty everywhere with yellow bed sheets and staines on all floors.
luckily we only used the place for some hours before leaving to the airport.
Never again

The bathroom door did not lock at all. The TV never turned on.
I arrived late in the evening and I was greeted by a staff member who showed me my apartment. I was expecting a small room but was pleasantly surprised to find myself being given a large 2 bedroom apartment that came with a modern shower room and a kitchen plus lounge room! There was air con inside and fans in the bedrooms and lounge room area. Rooms come with clean towels and you get a bottle of mineral water in the fridge, with refills available at the reception area. The kitchen had a cooker/stove/oven, fridge freezer, microwave and cutlery and crockery, so you can cook and eat easily, or go out for meals and supplies as there are plenty shops within walking distance! You also get given towels and toiletries in the shower room.
I had a great view from all rooms inside the apartment and I even had a private terrace area! There is a pool available for use anytime, plus they have Aldabra tortoises and you can feed them and take pics to your hearts content!
The staff are super friendly, helpful and attentive. The owner was also around on my final day there and he was knowledgeable and had great stories to share. My taxi failed to turn up on a day where I had to be at Eden Island within an hour. I was shown by staff how to download the bus app and top up a small amount on the app for use on the buses. Each journey is 10 rupees which is roughly 50p or less than a dollar. I went to Eden island then used buses again to go north and south of the island to explore fully! Thanks!
Das Appartement war sehr geräumig, die Küche war voll ausgestattet und es hat an nichts gefehlt. Ein beslnderes Highlight war der Pool der Anlage und die Nähe zum Ozean
Lika bra som hemma. Här fanns allt! Dessutom med gångavstånd till Takamaka romdestilleri. Provsmakningen var suverän! Skön pool och tyst o säkert. Ett stenkast från ett supermarket. Bra med egen bil men busshållplats finns nära
L'appartement était conforme et supérieur à mes attentes. Propre, bien équipé pour mes besoins et accessible par 2 portes, devant et derrière. La terrasse arrière avec accès privé dans le jardin augmente le confort et un côté privé très apprécié. Les tortues dans la cours, devant ma porte avant apporte un dépaysement quotidien agréable. Le personnel chaleureux et courtois, est présent et disponible en tout temps. Sur le domaine, piscine confortable et plusieurs espace pour socialiser dans un décor remplit d'arbre fruitier et d'arbres fleuris. J'ai adoré et je recommande sans hésité. Lyne
