We had the Camellia Chalet. Spectacular views on a hill overlooking the bay from the bed, deck and dining area. Room was the size of a small apartment with cooking amenities. We decided to dine in and enjoy the room and views. Grounds were meticulously landscaped with labels on all the native plants. We had a king sized bed even though the booking description said double. It was almost like staying in a treehouse.

Looks like a family-run property. Chalets were nicely appointed bearing in mind they are a little older. Beautifully clean & furnished. Our unit had a brand new aircon, so the owners obviously care about their property. Very nice, wish we could have stayed longer. Thank you 😊
