Book early, because the Toad fills up fast, but know that smoking is not allowed at all.
DK Eyewitness "This spotlessly clean inn, steps from the water's edge, does not have any restaurants, bars, or organized activities."
Lonely Planet "In a wooden building that was once a governor's house, this aging guesthouse by the sea features a handful of apartment-style rooms sporting kitchenettes and loads of wicker furniture." Full review
Frommer's "This meticulously maintained guesthouse close to the airport is warmly welcoming, a favorite of repeat visitors who appreciate the location, rooms with fully equipped kitchens, and good value" Full review
