Amazing location. Clean and properly built property! Just make sure you understand there is a main house on the property but you do get some descent privacy. Will definitely be going back soon.

Thank you for the review. I am surprised you didn't realize that it's a guesthouse "part of a large compound". BTW: I was also surprised that you did not inform me of your intentions to hold a party of 4.
