Palassa Private Residences

The beachfront rooms have balconies and a great feel, and the receptionist was nice. The AC worked well, and the bath had good water pressure. Still, the beds could be steadier and the cushions more comfortable.

The room was very clean and spacious, and waking up to the beach view was lovely. But for the high price, I expected breakfast to be included. I also had trouble sleeping because the soundproofing was poor: I could hear a dog barking, children playing outside, and the person upstairs walking loudly or moving things around. I stayed two nights in 2022.

The staff made us feel so welcome. Ludi, Rosie & Bert were especially kind, and housekeeping requests are handled through viber/WhatsApp. Thanks as well to sir North Ramos for arranging our hotel/airport transfer and changing the booking when our flights were delayed. It all went smoothly. The WiFi was decent enough for streaming movies and downloading work files, and the android TV had the streaming services I use. There’s a shared kitchen and dining area for reheating meals and eating takeaways. The property is on the peaceful side of the island, right on the beach, with a lovely view and no crowd around it. It’s about a 4-8 minute walk from the back of D'Mall. White beach sounds nice, but it was too crowded for me. I wanted to relax and heal, and I enjoyed the refreshing walk. There are lots of stairs, so it’s not PWD friendly. I didn’t mind the cardio, though the shower pressure could be better. I’m glad I picked this place, and I’ll definitely be back. They deserve the recognition and profit, even though part of me would love to keep this quiet spot to myself. Many thanks.

The staff were kind and respectful, and the surroundings felt safe and peaceful. The balcony looks out over the beach, just a few steps away. We had a good stay and would recommend it. A few things could make the rooms more convenient: a cabinet for clothes and luggage, plus bathroom and door mats to help keep things clean. Better soundproofing would also help, since we could hear other guests outside our room.
