This very welcoming little Swiss-Filipino place has small, neat rooms with air-con, satellite TV and bamboo furniture. A large nipa hut is another option, perfect for groups or families, with a full kitchen. The restaurant serves up great rosti with egg and schnitzel. Andi, the owner is ever helpful and will arrange scooters and advise about transport.
