Shikim i shpejtë: It's a stunning step back in time, but the traditional open-to-the-sky bathrooms mean you'll be sharing your shower with the occasional frog or mosquito.
Rishikuar nga @TravelwithSmi: My stay at Coconut Lagoon was the peaceful escape I desperately needed. The traditional wooden bungalow was so cozy, but the real star was the open-air shower—showering under the sky was unreal! If you love nature and quiet vibes, you'll adore this place.
