Beautiful accommodation and right next to a lovely beach with great and unpretentious Spanish restaurants... Excellent. As good as we had hoped and will go back with our children next year who will also love it!

On leaving our room at Serendip which led out straight onto the front veranda... we saw that the garden was full of fireflies. We were then led to our table out the back by the plunge pool where we would be eating dinner. The manager had arranged and lit dozens of tea lights around the garden. Priceless.

The cottage was beautiful, the location was perfect. I will definitely be telling everyone about it, although was tempted to keep it as my secret!

WOW! So many different experiences and so many wonderful people. Climbing Mt Batur at 4am to see the sun rise was a major highlight and swimming in the cool clear waterfall in Lombok.

We had the most wonderful vacation; there were lots of hugely memorable moments. Arriving at the hotel was pretty good: it was in pristine condition, the staff were very friendly and there were lots of glorious flowers.

Excellent - first big vacation with toddler, and she LOVED it! Very relaxing for us too... Lots of little things that had clearly been thought through to make your life as easy as possible.

It was just incredible- I honestly, honestly mean that and I can be very hard to please! I will never forget it and have come home feeling more rested and content than I have ever been before. It was the best start to married life for us we could have possibly had.

Tochni was one of the most beautiful villages in the area. It suited us because it was very quiet. Renovating old buildings provides an immediate atmosphere to the vacation and is much better than staying in a new apartment.

Walking on a completely empty long golden beach, watching the monsoon rains from our windows and kayaking in the mangrove swamp and watching the monkeys were the highlights.

The campfires on the beach which were lit when anyone was leaving after a week's stay. The fabulous staff played traditional drums and we watched shooting stars, under the stars, whilst dancing and singing.

Every day of my vacation there was a great moment. Diving was superb, the food excellent and people extremely service orientated and pleasant to talk with.

Traveling in a dug out canoe on the river between The Gambia and Senegal amongst the mangroves and seeing so much bird life was the most exciting part.

The most memorable part of our stay were the evening meals which were buffet style but of excellent quality providing an opportunity to taste different dishes.

Absolutely amazing. I would recommend this area to anyone looking for ultimate relaxation in beautiful untouched surroundings, where you feel at home amongst the local people.

We have had a wonderfully relaxing and peaceful time and have enjoyed exploring the local area and swimming in the pool. This was the perfect place for us to stay and we have been made really welcome, almost like a homestay but with our own bungalow and separate meals.

The hotel was a wonderful find!! It is beautiful, and all the staff without
exception were very friendly, and helpful - I don't think "NO" is a word they
ever use to their guests!!!!

This accommodation is a visually beautiful Portuguese villa, traditionally furnished in Portuguese style with enormous, high-ceilinged rooms in lush, well-kept gardens. It is perfect for anybody who is happy to make their own enjoyment.
