    This is only a minor issue. Carparking is tight for bigger vehicles and so be better to hire a smaller car or motorcycle.

    There is a lot to like at the property. The hosts Anna/Rob are very welcoming and showed us to our unit and explained where everything is, from filling up your water bottle for drinking to the laundry room and designated areas for smokers as well to the recycling bins. BBQ and pizza area to use and relaxing is so spacious and good for families. Unit so spacious. Super king-size bed is so comfortable. Smart tv with my favorite tv apps was awesome. The bathroom is absolutely dreamy and spacious and clean. Breakfast provided by the host for the 1 day until you get your own supplies at wigmores as it is only 2 mins away on a car or motorcycle is great. The swimming pool 100% is what is required to cool off after a day out in the heat or whenever you like to swim. Beaches nearby, absolutely 💯. Luscious gardens are also so beautiful around the the units provides privacy, too.

    I arrived early in Raro,,I was feeling pretty spoiled as Rob picked me up from the airport. He showed me around town and dropped me off to explore.He took my bags to the hotel as my room wasn't quite ready.Found the bus ,so perfect. Once I checked in, Anna showed me to my room .It was so beautiful and well equipped.Perfect in every way. Even a delicious breakfast for the next morning. Brand new bathroom reno, it was all so excellent. The only thing I would change is to stay longer. Anna even offered me a ride back to town to catch my flight , sge said she was going there anyway, so sweet 🙏❤️

    Not the accommodations fault but it was so hot, the fan in the room was great during the night but it did little for us during the day. We went in the peak of summer. Internet was slow for my son but it didn't bother the rest of us.

    The breakfast was so nice my son ate three of the yogurt muesli

    Everything! Anna and Rob have created a paradise within paradise. Super friendly and helpful people, always happy to answer any of your questions. The accommodation was fully set up, even with a first-day breakfast that wasn’t part of the package – such a nice touch! No rigid rules, just a relaxed vibe, everything clean and ready to go. This is one of those rare places I’d love to return to. Thank you, Anna! Thank you, Rob! ✌️See ya! 😁

    Everything it was perfect. Location to the beach, swimming and snorkeling with tropical fish and turtles. Accommodation was also brilliant, clean and comfortable with plenty of room, outside deck partly covered with loungers and table / chairs, swimming pool, full kitchen and the gardens are amazing. I thought it resembled a Boutique Garden Motel. I would highly recommend to all.

    We stayed a week, so a few more bits of cutlery would have been helpful, but no real complaints.

    Fabulous location and beautiful setting, surrounded by plants. We had the garden studio which was secluded and quiet, and well equipped for a small space.
