The hosts were incredibly kind & helpful. The location is good, walkable to Muri Beach, but having a car/scooter is probably better. The verandah is an excellent spot to enjoy a morning coffee or an evening G&T! ##### Rebecca Stayed 7 nights in Jul 2022 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Hotels in Cloudcroft](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cloudcroft-Hotels.d90603.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [Cheap Hotels in Huntingdon](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Huntingdon-Hotels-Budget-Hotels.0-0-d4665-tBudgetHotels.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [The Roseate Edinburgh](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Edinburgh-Hotels-The-Roseate-Edinburgh.h1381332.Hotel-Information) > > [The Edgewater Resort & Spa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Rarotonga-Hotels-The-Edgewater-Resort-And-Spa.h1583329.Hotel-Information) > > [Spa Hotels in Salisbury](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Salisbury-Hotels-Spa-Hotels.0-0-d5679-tSpaHotels.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Hotels near Chitwan National Park](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Chitwan-National-Park-Hotels.0-l6114468-0.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Hotels near Ponte Gardena-Laion/Waidbruck-Lajen Station](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Ponte-Gardena-LaionWaidbruck-Lajen-Station-Hotels.d6043279.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [Cabin Rentals Bali](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Bali-Cabins.d602651-aaCabins.Travel-Guide-Accommodation) > > [Mövenpick Hotel Amsterdam City Centre](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Amsterdam-Hotels-Movenpick-Hotel-Amsterdam-City-Centre.h1452083.Hotel-Information) ### Flights > [Flights from Belfast (BHD) to Sal (SID)](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flights/bhd/sid/belfast-to-sal-island) > > [Flights from Corballis (DUB) to Braade (CFN)](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flights/dub/cfn/dublin-to-donegal) > > [Flights from Barry (CWL) to Frankfurt (FRA)](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flights/cwl/fra/cardiff-to-frankfurt) > > [Flights from Bristol (BRS) to Suðurnesjabær (KEF)](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flights/brs/kef/bristol-to-reykjavik) > > [Flights from Bang Phli (BKK) to Surin (PXR)](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flights/bkk/pxr/bangkok-to-surin) > > [Flights from Edinburgh (EDI) to Cairns (CNS)](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flights/edi/cns/edinburgh-to-cairns) ### Cars ### Activities ### Packages > [Denia Holidays](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Denia.d6023993.Holidays-City-Breaks) > > [Ooty Holidays](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Ooty.d6234125.Holidays-City-Breaks) > > [Sarawak Holidays](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Sarawak.d11190.Holidays-City-Breaks) ### General > [Visit District 3](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Ho-Chi-Minh-City-District-3.dx6252038) > > [Visit Ortakent](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Ortakent.dx6158184) > > [Visit Thiene](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Thiene.dx6049406) ---
