Af hverju fólk elskar þetta
- Direct access to the patrolled Malua Bay Beach
- In-room kitchenettes and washer/dryers
- Extremely pet-friendly with dedicated ground-floor rooms
Stutt samantekt: It’s a fantastic basecamp for beach days, but don't expect resort amenities like a pool or gym, and be prepared for the occasional barking dog.
Farið yfir af @herfooddiaryy: My stay at Abode Malua Bay was exactly what we needed. The room was incredibly spacious with multiple beds, and having a kitchenette and my own washer/dryer was a total lifesaver after long days at the beach. It’s the perfect, practical basecamp for a family trip.
