A gorgeous traditional villa with lots of colour and flair (or ‘Swissness’, as the sign says – to which you could also add ‘and a little eccentricity’). This ‘budget boutique’ hotel has hammocks, sun loungers and a variety of rooms, the priciest of which offer sea views. The rooms have flower-sprinkled beds and homey touches.
There’s also a breezy cafe with tasty treats such as homemade muesli, with classical music often wafting through the palms. Book the five-course captain's dinner in advance (Rs 1800).
