We were beyond happy that we got to stay in Madiha Surf Lodge. This place was beautiful and with such a friendly owners & staff! Our room was so beautiful and clean. The brakfast/seating area was so cosy and beautiful and the accommodation was located only few steps from the most amazing beach with breathtaking sunset spot(short private road to the beach). We are vegan & they met our needs and prepared us tastiest breakfast (It was even better than food from restourants haha) So couldn't be more happy! Thank you so much and we will for sure return! It was hard to leave :)

Very spacious rooms and very clean spaces in and outside the premises. Comfortable beds and outstanding AC that will cool the room in seconds as well as a fan. Our room had a great little seating space that overlooked the green. The host was very lovely and always attentive. Will definitely recommend it for long and short stays. Very close to the beach and other restaurants, bars, and cafes.

I can really recommend this hotel! It’s super new and really high-quality – you can tell a lot of thought went into the details. The architecture is amazing, with high ceilings and a great design that makes the space feel so welcoming. The bed was incredibly comfortable, I slept like a baby. The location is perfect, everything you need is just a short distance away. I also loved how easy it was to communicate via WhatsApp – super smooth and quick. The host was so friendly and attentive, you really feel at home. And the sense of security was great, I felt safe and taken care of the whole time.

Extremely welcoming and helpful family. Lovely property with nice new fresh rooms. I was stuck with nowhere to stay due to a misunderstanding. They took me in late at night, I had no bags with me, they gave me PJ's which was honestly such a lovely lovely thing to do. The breakfast the next-day was gorgeous. Dhal, sambol, potato curry, hoppers, the lot!! 2 types of desert. Genuinely lovely people. AND THEIR DOG!!! omg, the cutest fluff Ball I've ever seen.
