Extremely pet-friendly with dedicated ground-floor rooms
Brzi pregled: 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.
Pregledano od @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.
Što su rekli gosti koji su boravili ovdje
The hype
Spotlessly clean, spacious rooms right across from the beach with everything you need to self-cater.
Reality check
The cheaper rooms lack views, and the pet-friendly nature means noise can occasionally be an issue.
You're traveling with a dog
You prefer self-catering with a kitchenette
You want to be steps from the ocean
