We staid at Villa Lala that belongs to the same owner therefore, we end up spending most of our time at Poa Poa (restaurant) and pool Villa Lala - the room number 1 is superb! Initially we got to number 2 (smaller in size and different setup). We got transferred to the room 1 (due to some issue with toilet) but what we discovered - room N1 was for sure Superior. It worth 💯 to pay little more but get this room! Wardrobe is soooo specious, layout is perfect 🤩 and I love its interior design more. You will have shared kitchen - to fix tea or coffee for yourself or sometime we kept some fruits in the fridge ☺️ Next door to Villa Lala you will have Poa Poa restaurant with the best food! Sooo good and good value for money. I was having grilled octopus with grilled veggies every single day 😁 soooo good! Great spot for pics as well 📸🤳 Staff is cool and caring! Good place to chill and relax Big thanks to John 🫶🏻 Highly recommended! 🌟💯
