    Great homestay with just a few rooms. Rooms and bathroom were clean, enjoyed hearing the sound of the sea just outside our door. Location is conveniently near airport. The thing that stood out for us was the service and the food. The young man was extremely friendly and kind, served up great local food, explained the menu, checked in on us during and after our meals. We enjoyed our stay!
