The location is great. It is 2min walk to the beach. The staff is awesome. The owner is really chill and helps you book tours, do laundry, transfers, or any other stuff you might need. The room is spacious and the fan really works, we didn't use AC. The bathroom is huge and has shampoo, body wash and soap. A great value overall!

I loved the location of this place tucked away in nature right on Coral Beach.. beds super comfy food was delicious and Brenda cooked anything you needed.. I used the bicycle to ride around they were great and just lived my time here.. Karjaa picked me up dropped me off to the bus.. taught me how to play COROM..felt like a home away from home.. staying with a family always a good thing..

I had an amazing two-week stay! The room was clean, spacious, and very comfortable. The homeowners are truly lovely — caring, attentive, and always there if needed, yet never intrusive. As a solo female traveler, I felt completely safe and at home. The owner even arranged for a trusted friend to pick me up from the airport — such a thoughtful gesture which I appreciate a lot! The shared terrace and patio are very nice for relaxing. The location is fantastic: the beach is just 2 minutes away, and there are plenty of restaurants nearby. I felt so comfortable and welcomed throughout my stay - truly a place I would recommend to everyone! Thank you so much for everything!

​An very good experience at Blue Wings, a place we recommend for its very good value for money. Here's what we liked the most: ​Location: Perfect! You are literally steps away from the beach, which is a huge advantage. ​The View: The view from the restaurant's terrace is superb, ideal for relaxing during a meal. ​The Staff: A 10/10 team, made up of very kind and helpful people. ​The Value: Overall, we consider it one of the best choices in the area in terms of value for money.

Location was perfect (close to beach and amazing restaurants), staff were incredibly helpful, whole place was super clean and exceptional value for money.

We had another booking in Trinco but some unexpected events in our previous accommodation forced us to find something new. Sunbreeze was even better than our previous one. The family was really nice and welcoming asking about everything we need and taking care of us. There is such a nice and family atmosphere :). You have AC in your room, you can use balcony and common terrace. Room was very clean with enough places to leave your things. The owner is also renting scooters for such a fair price which we used. Thank you very much

    Our room was extremely comfortable and well air-conned. Our lovely host was extremely accommodating and kind throughout our stay. He brought us tea whenever we asked as well as helped us arrange a snorkelling trip. We also loved the cats! There were many cats to play with, all extremely friendly and adorable. We wish the host all the best with rescuing more cats and dogs.

    The host and his family are super friendly and helpful. They allowed us to check in earlier than expected and provided us with a lovely cup of coffee on arrival. We really got the feel of a home stay. The back of the property enters right onto the beach. The beach where the property is situated is private and private. Perfect for relaxation after busy days. We stayed for 3 nights and it was perfect for this length.
