Step back in time and experience the colonial charm of our 150-year-old villa, originally the residence of the village chief. Lovingly renovated in 2015/2016, the villa now features a welcoming living room, an elegant dining hall, a spacious veranda, and an open living area that invites you to relax and unwind.
Our property includes both the main villa and the lodge, just a short 1-minute walk apart. The lodge, once the home of the colonial treasurer’s first resident, complements the villa, which was built by his son to accommodate his growing family. The villa offers 8 rooms—2 luxury suites with both air conditioning and ceiling fans, and large double bathrooms featuring a jacuzzi tub and rain shower, as well as 6 deluxe rooms with both air conditioning and ceiling fans. Additionally, the lodge offers a selection of standard rooms equipped with ceiling fans, and deluxe rooms with both air conditioning and fans, providing a slightly higher level of comfort than the standard rooms.
Each space has been thoughtfully restored to blend contemporary comfort with colonial elegance, ensuring that every guest feels at home. The lodge’s rooms are all beautifully furnished and feature luxurious bathrooms, complementing the overall charm and comfort of your stay.
