Dreamy but a tad overpriced
The Dream Villa is located in a large white building, reminiscent of a mansion, and surrounded by a large collection of well-kept vegetation.
Each floor has a pleasant shared balcony and the rooms have huge windows that show off the area’s great views. Despite appearing to be in good condition overall, several of the rooms were undergoing renovations when we passed through in mid-2013. Rooms are equipped with WiFi, a minibar, satellite TV and hot water, and some rooms have a bathtub. Pinewood floors and walls give the rooms a charming atmosphere. The hotel operates Dream restaurant just up the street, and is able to arrange room service. Breakfast is included. This is a lovely hotel overall but similar to the much cheaper nearby Honey Pine Hotel.
