What I Loved
Cute little bungalow-style room with a terrace. Lovely green areas set around ponds and swimming pool. Lots of lovely trees and plants.

The gardens are lovely and filled with tropical-type plants including palm trees.
Water features dot the gardens and my room looked over a pond with a waterfall and palm trees.
There was also a restaurant in the main building that did evening meals. This has a nice terrace area that looked over another water feature outside.
As it was November the outdoor pool wasn’t in use but the weather was still warm and pleasant. It was nice enough to sit outside in the evening – although that might just apply to those of us from the Highlands as I was the only person doing so!
