Just finished 3 nights at the Aloe Cottage which was wonderful.
Pearl (the owner) really took car of us having all the necessities we needed including soft drinks and water waiting in the fridge, coffee, biscuits, tons of towels, post cards, satellite TV, you name it, it was there. She kindly checked on us via WhatsAp a few times each day to make sure we were doing well. It felt like staying with family!
The place is very conveniently located:
- around 100m to the closest beach (behind the Esso station) just down from West Bay Beach. The beach is really quiet, safe, shaded and beautiful!
- 200m to one of the island's largest Fosters super markets (that has a hot kitchen if you want to take out some local cuisine at a much cheaper price than restaurants) and liquor store just beside it.
- 50m to a 24hr Subway franchise for those late night/morning cravings.
- 50m to the local bus stop which comes every 5 - 10 minutes and costs only USD2.50 to go all the way to George Town
All in all, an amazing experience.
Can't wait to come back!
