Although small the thatched cottages, with woven bamboo walls,
have bathrooms with Western-style toilets, hot water, telephones,
digital electronic safes, mini bars, tea / coffee facilities
and are designed with couples in mind.
They have one double bed downstairs, (which occupies most
of the floor area), and a further single mattress in a tiny
attic room which makes them serviceable for two friends traveling
together but not being on double bed terms, (one child aged
6 to 12 will fit up there too but if there are also two adults
downstairs then the room is too small to be convenient --
it only works if one child accompanies one adult. Children
under 6 cannot be accommodated in the bungalows). Usually
people use the attic to store their bags and, perhaps, to
lie down during the day and gaze out of the little upstairs
window, thus getting an elevated view along the beach.

The main beach |
With these rooms we try to realise the tropical island fantasy
of a thatched cottage on the beach, beneath the stars. The
construction is so rustic & open that they give the feeling
of being almost camped on the beach. They are fan-cooled and
one sleeps under a mosquito net. This is their charm for some,
but for others they may not be suitable.
