"Sally and the staff were very hospitable and always available. Couldn’t have asked for better accommodation, had everything we needed. The grounds are very private and each villa has their own courtyard. The saltwater pool is lovely and always clean. Convenient location and you can walk to a netted
beach
, restaurants and bus stop. Definitely worth considering Serenity accommodation!"
