Spent a lovely 10 nights at First Ave Guesthouse and enjoyed essentially everything about the time. The staff were friendly, the room was nice, the breakfast was great and the location perfect. By the end, it almost felt like home.
A lovely large guest house with rooms attached to the main building as well as in annexes. A very well kept pool area. The room was spacious and light with a shared verandah as well as a fully equipped small kitchen area with microwave and fridge. Excellent Manager and staff with a good selection of both hot and cold food for breakfast served in a lovely breakfast area overlooking the pool. There is an honesty bar and snacks available throughout the day. Close to the seafront and walkable to bars and resaurants. Would definitely return
