    No fridge. Shower facilities were very basic with an unpleasant smell in the bathroom.

    Great location and extremely friendly and helpful staff Good to have a veranda onto the beach . Very accommodating over my breakfast delays.

    The rooms are a bit old and neglected, although still clean, and the bed is comfortable. The curtains are not blackout, so a lot of light comes in early in the morning.

    The location is excellent, right on the beach. Breakfast and food are good.

    We loved our stay, but if we want to find something, rooms are a little bit too small for the price you are paying.

    Beautiful location, the rooms are right on the beach. We had lunch and dinner at their restaurant and really enjoyed our meals (we had grilled fish and seafood). The staff was friendly and attentive.

    When I arrived, it felt like a very touristry area with a sort of laid-back hippy or backpacker vibe. Not really my type of thing. However, the food and beers in the nearby snack bar Hawaii were great, and the room was right on the beach. I really enjoyed my stay after all!

    Would have preferred a ceiling fan instead of air-con. Some pics on Booking.com were clearly taken a long time ago.

    The balcony was perfect place to sit and watch the waves roll in when there were brief showers - usually in the company of one or more of the local street dogs (which looked relatively healthy). The room was very comfortable; a ceiling fan would have been wonderful (room had air-con but our preference is not to sleep directly under an AC, so we left the door slightly open each night). Easy walking distance to eateries, or short tuk-tuk into the main town.

    Be careful of the beach dogs, they're very needy and will headbutt you to pat them.

    Nice place, very quiet area. On the beach so you get that bungalow experience

    The room is very small - basically just a bed with extra 2 feet on each side. The bathroom was smelly and even turning on exhaust did not get rid of the smell completely.

    You step out of the door and you are directly at a beach. Walk 20-25 steps and you are touching sea waves. Wonderful place if you want to stay on the beach and want to do tourist activities whole day and just come back to the room to sleep.

    Fortunately we came in the low season. The room was small, they have a problem with humidity, other than that is fine. Nothing exceptional. Friendly staff. The kitchen was closed. The bar was closed. The property should advise that this sort of amenities will be closed.

    This place is nice, it is right in front of the sea. It was quiet, specious bathroom, ok size bedroom, nice little terrace with two chairs and small table. big window in front to watch the beach

    we did not have breakfast. They have a very good restaurant called waves that provides great food. Uppaweli beach is probably the best beach in the area. it's a great location.

    A few updates the to room would make it more user friendly - like a soap holder/ shelf in the shower!

    The location, views and staff were amazing. Beautiful beach with access to lounges. The front balcony was also a nice space.

    Our room wasn’t entirely clean, it seemed as if it was cleaned but left unattended for some time. There were several dead bugs, spider webs etc.

    The location is excellent, the rooms are right near the beach. It’s basic room but has all the needs. The staff was friendly as well.
