    The property was beautifully decorated; the bedroom was very spacious and had the most comfortable bed ever! The staff were very attentive. We loved the feel of the place and the lush garden with pool. Although there are no tea making facilities in the room, we were offered complimentary tea/ coffee in the morning which was lovely and bottled water was provided in the rooms. It is a colonial style villa so bear in mind that the rooms are not hugely soundproofed…we could hear the other guests talking in the lounge area when in our room.
