"Unbelievable service — Florence and the staff made us feel like family, always greeting us by name (and even with hugs!). Our beachfront bungalow was spotless and comfortable with stunning views. Breakfast and dinner were excellent, and the location right on the beach is perfect. Highly recommend renting a car to explore, but it’s hard to leave this special place. Truly unforgettable!"

Lagoon Breeze Villas

Lagoon Breeze Villas

10/10 Excellent
"We had a great time. The premises is clean and well kept. Air con was lovely. Bed was comfy. Pool was fun. Breakfast delicious and staff are kind and helpful. The location is great with the beach across the street for snorkelling, kayaking and watching the sunset. Lots of gear available including water booties, life jackets, fins including kid sizes. Easy to catch the bus and there is a rental car place just down the road. One/two restaurants within walking distance. All was very easy and would definitely stay here again. "
