The house is a bungalow situated between the city,the beach and the airport which mean the place is connected to the city tourists attraction in a few km away. Now we can accommodate up to 10 guests. Here you have a personal space on a private land, with parking space for few cars equipped with auto gate and home alarm which provide security for your safety.You can walk to the nearby shops with a few 24hr convenience shops, you can walk to the beach to join hundreds of tourists and locals to witness the most beautiful sunset in the world every evening! You can enjoy the food stalls at the beach selling durian, coconut, satay almost all the popular local delicacies.Just two minutes ride from the homestay you can feel the bustling city life and into the most modern and new shopping complex, IMAGO, the main tourists attraction for shopping.. Just 5 minutes away... Isn't this the best location you ever find? ... And away from all the crowd and noise from the city! Live in a comfort zone with a affordable price for a private bungalow with four rooms and 3 bathrooms! All rooms equipped with aircon and ceiling fans for your choice for cooling down.
Hi.. Im Eric.. Your new host in this exclusive private bungalow. Cleanliness and good hospitality is my top priorities. Today even hotels are lacking in this field as we read feedback from angry customers everywhere and homestay isn't better either. With more and more travellers are now switching to homestay for a more homely feel, we need to emphasis more in cleanliness and great hospitality and offer complete amenities for guests' needs. Here, I'm doing my very best to achieve a 5 star service! My all 5 star reviews in air-bnb proved that I'm in the right track! So welcome travellers, feel the differences here! You won't regret it! I'm fresh and ready to make an impact!
