"Arabella truly felt like a home away from home."

9.0

The sea view, Arabella exceeded our expectations. Ray (our host) was incredibly friendly, accommodating & communicated well from the day we booked until we checked out. We arrived late for check-in, but he was understanding, agreed to our arrangements, he even allowed us extra time for checkout at no additional cost. The location is very convenient—within walking distance to the beach and public swimming pools, few kilometres to the mall, and with spacious parking available. The rooms were beautiful, spacious, and exceptionally clean. The cleaner was also very nice.We had a very comfortable and enjoyable stay.

There was no Wi-Fi during our stay, however Jay explained it was a temporary issue and it is being fixed. There was no WiFi which Ray explained that it was broken and they are working on fixing it
