Our all time favourite place run by a wonderful family that we are very close with. A stunning beach resort with the river and mangroves on one side, and the sea on the other. Watch the sunset, sunrise and moonrise and connect with nature. You will see thousands of small crabs on the beach in the morning, you can go on a boat ride to the waterfall and go bird spotting, or take a more adventurous boat ride to a nearby island. If you're more into local partying, its only a ten minute boat ride to the popular beach town Number two.
Lodging is in one of 7 huts built out of all natural materials, and the place runs totally on solar power. As eco friendly and authentic as it gets! Good for children too.
