Includes 5 modern, spacious and elegantly appointed rooms positioned on 2 levels. Nestled within lush and verdant garden of indigenous greenery, MOONSHELL RESIDENCE becomes your home away from home.
We are a team of experience locals looking forward to make our guests feel comfortable and spend a tremendous holiday vacation with us.
This is a local island with a few local people living around. And the island is packed with white sandy beached and crystal clear water.
