Erholsamer Aufenthalt

10.0

Sehr gute Unterkunft und nette Gastgeberin Munira. Sie und ihr Personal tun alles, um einem einen angenehmen Aufenthalt zu ermöglichen. Munira hat uns sehr gut zu Ausflügen beraten und diese auch gleich für uns gebucht. Frühstück und Abendessen waren ausgezeichnet. Sehr ruhige Lage mit tollem Ausblick.

A perfect place to relax and unwind or equally use as a base to visit the surrounding attractions

9.0

The view was absolutely stunning and a real treat to wake up to every day. A perfect place to relax and unwind or equally use as a base to visit the surrounding attractions - on that note really glad we decided to stay here rather than in the busier Ella which is still very easily accessible for a day trip. The photos actually do not do the rooms and facilities justice. Beds were comfortable, and the rooms clean and homey.

Not a negative, but something to be aware of - you will need to pre-order your food a few days in advance.

We had such a peaceful stay at Hapu Tales. The villa has beautiful views over the surroundings and you hear nothing but birds. We were also so well taken care of by the personnel, it felt like we were in a very luxurious hotel! Munira gave us great tips for what to do in the area, and the food was delicious! We spent our time by the pool, playing games in the game room and relaxing. Finally, the villa has been designed very well, and we particularly enjoyed the walk-in shower. Great place to recharge, relax and feel on a luxurious vacation!

Beautiful location, very clean, great service. Great facilities such as a swimming pool and hot tub. Hospitality of the host was excellent. Also good for kids as there are various board games in the house.
