We stayed en Kalao apartment for a weekend and loved the interior design and special design objects in the flat. the white wodden beans on the roof reminded... More

Booked this as a result of Tripadvisor rave reviews. There's somehing odd here. For a start this is not a Hotel. It's just 5 apartments - 3 good, 1 very average, 1 poor - with no bar or dining facilities and an occasional concierge who is there a few hours a day.

The design is so cool, with cute outdoor areas to sunbathe and seating areas to relax. The... More
