Accommodation Options

The main house, with its newly completed timber structure, is in classic Haiku style and designed to “allow man and nature to live in mutual respect”. Like Fisherman’s Lodge, the house sits gently on the land and is reliant on natural air flows for cooling. It reflects grace, simplicity and restraint. The accommodation in the main house consists of three high standard apartments which can be rented separately or combined for larger groups or families. Each apartment, and Fisherman’s Lodge, have open spacious living areas and comfortable seating for both dining and relaxing. The dividing walls and floors between the apartments are well soundproofed to ensure privacy and tranquillity. Several mango trees fringe the property with banana palms and bamboo below. The are there for guests to enjoy when in season. We recently created a wooden viewing deck from rainforest timber among the trees below Fisherman’s Lodge. This offers wonderful views to the West and all our guests are invited to share its use.

We would mention to readers that our apartments are located on a hillside, overlooking the beach. Access to the apartments involves a 75 yard walk up a grass track. As a result, our accommodations may not be suitable for those with walking difficulties or who easily get out of breath. The photographs on the website give a good impression of the daily walk up the hill from the beach.
