Designed to accommodate two guests, the room has a romantic vibe that the two of you will certainly appreciate. If you ever decide to go out of the room, you will not run out of activities to do. The beach, a top draw in Kata, is just a five-minute walk from here. So are the restaurants, bars and the Kata Night Market.
