ABOUT

                                                                                 ABOUT

Goyambokka Beach is only a 5 minute walk along a village road and there you can swim and sunbake surrounded by coconut palm trees. There are also huts on the beach offering sunbeds with umbrellas and a good food and drink selection, including fresh seafood from our own local fishing market. They even catch fresh fish right in front of the huts.

​

You can view the sunrise from the beach or take a romantic moonlight stroll.

​

I can arrange day trips or longer for you as well as local tuk tuks to go into town and elsewhere.

​

My guesthouse offers you air-con rooms with a common living room.

 

As well as the complimentary breakfast, you can have meals in the bistro with wood-fied pizzas (we make our own mozarella from fresh buffalo milk), tapas and seafood bbq's using local fresh seafood and vegetables.

​

There’s a good fibre wifi connection, ceiling fans, hot water as well as off-street parking.

​

The guesthouse is in a garden setting, visited by many birds including peacocks. Monkeys come through the trees and sometimes mongoose will appear as they hunt in the undergrowth.

​

I look forward to meeting you.

​

Please contact me if you have any queries or would like to book tours in advance. Otherwise, just make up your mind when you arrive.

​

thank you

Ramesh
