Golden Banana B&B Superior

Better than its forebear

What we say:

Somewhat confusingly, the Golden Banana Bed & Breakfast is now entirely unrelated to the high quality Golden Banana Resort and Hotel, although the staff say nothing about the severance and can even give the impression that there is still a connection. The original Bed & Breakfast is now in a horrible state: it smells, the decor is exhausted, and the garden is a shambles. It looks like someone gave up on it a long time ago. This may be because the owner has been concentrating on building the Golden Banana Superior just up the road which, it must be said, is much better. In a quiet area, 15 thoughtfully designed rooms, each with a balcony, are organised around a long, inviting semi-indoor pool which spends most of the time in the shade and is thus cooler than many others which can turn into hot soup. Copying the original Golden Banana, the look is a cross between Asia and the Mediterranean, with soft yellow walls and Chinese detailing. All the rooms are en suite, with fan, air-con, TV and safety box. The rooftop is a perfect spot to take a $3.50 cocktail and watch the sun go down. Downstairs is a poolside restaurant, and the Happy Hour is six hours long with a buy one, get one free offer. A good flashpacker option.
