The hosts here are fantastic, friendly, helpful and go the extra mile to make you feel at home. Good breakfasts, easy walk to the beach (taxi back though as very steep roads!) . We had a great stay and would thoroughly recommend.

Highly Recommended - Wonderful Hospitality
This place was perfect. More than I expected. The hosts were so wonderful and welcoming. They also offered some recommendations on things to do in the area. The space itself was comfortable and so nice to hang out. I had to make myself leave because I was so happy there. There is a bar, couches with a fireplace, a cabana type area, a pool, and the breakfast and the breakfast area was so cute as well. I highly recommend this place. It gives the warm feeling of a happy home as opposed to staying in a hotel where you can never find this type of warmth.

Delightful, comfortable, clean guest houses
HoneyPot guest house is a dream location with a separate porch for each guest room, lovely honey-scented bath soaps, and a pool and garden pathway. The space is gated and guarded and feels peaceful and secluded though it is close to malls and airport.
