We had a really great time at Madiha Venus! The breakfast was pretty good. The location is close the beachfront and restaurants. The room was amazing: very clean, spacious, cozy and stylish with interesting details like carved doors and shutters. We really appreciate hospitality and desire to make our stay excellent. The owner and his wife were very friendly, helpful and attentive. Wish you to maintain the high level of service you have! I can definitely recommend this accommodation!

The room was absolutely immaculate when we arrived, and our lovely host was there to greet us with open arms. As we have been travelling for about 1.5 months we have stayed in many different types of accomodation but this room was the best. We felt as is we were in luxury in this more modern feeling home. It was great - as we arrived late there is a little restaurant right next door that do great roti and curry’s!

Extremely welcoming and helpful family. Lovely property with nice new fresh rooms. I was stuck with nowhere to stay due to a misunderstanding. They took me in late at night, I had no bags with me, they gave me PJ's which was honestly such a lovely lovely thing to do. The breakfast the next-day was gorgeous. Dhal, sambol, potato curry, hoppers, the lot!! 2 types of desert. Genuinely lovely people. AND THEIR DOG!!! omg, the cutest fluff Ball I've ever seen.

This loving family easily created the place I've stayed in my 1 year of traveling. If you're the type of traveler who appreciates major attention to detail, the warmest of welcomes (fresh glass of passion fruit juice from their garden !!), high-quality facilities, and mind-blowing dollar value, then you found your home away from home. Honestly, I wish I had a home back home as nice as this home.

We had a surprising very good stay with Dayana and Neil and their children, the hosts of the guest house. Very quiet area for a good sleep, the jungle sounds wake you up in the morning. Nice beds with mosquito nets, a own kitchen to use if you want to, and otherwise some local and also fancy places around to find food and drinks. Would come definitely back to the house. Thank you
