A good deal for chill-seekers. This low-key, isolated place is dominated by coconut trees and coral gravel. The three bungalows are no-frills and simply designed but tidy and have a kitchen. The property is just 100m from the (rocky) shore; for swimming, you'll need to head to Temae Beach, which is 500m away. No meal service, but there’s a grocery store nearby. Cash only.
