    I was on a holiday with my japanese friend and my sister. The homestay was the best to experience local culture and home environment . We were all taken care of by the host and domestic staff. Property has lovely rooms and a terrace. Great garden and close to the UNESCO heritage sites.

    Great host who speaks English and arranged a well priced tour to the amazing archaeological sites for us. The room was clean and everything worked. The location is well away from the noisy streets and only steps from the beach. Plenty of restaurants within easy walking distance, including local ones on the main road. Good value for money
