Gorgeous B&B in a supremely peaceful location, a short drive inland from Matura Beach, with friendly owners who offer walks and waterfall visits in the surrounding area. The inviting rooms have ceiling fans and open out onto patios hung with feeders to attract hummingbirds and the many other bird species that frequent the area. Great local meals available.
