Akiko’s is a beautiful, peaceful retreat for people wanting a simple, humble and sweet place to stay.
Akiko herself is a generous and kind soul, who gives with her whole heart. Mango Tree cottage is a sweet guesthouse - just a single standalone room with only screens separating you from the beautiful surrounding gardens. Be aware there are very vocal frogs who chirp all night long, so it is essential to bring earplugs for your stay. I am a light sleeper and usually am sensitive to noise but it didn’t affect my rest.
The kitchenette, shower and bathroom is shared with one other guest. The resident cats also bring a very lovely energy to the place. It has a community feel, and I would recommend this as a unique place for an opportunity to wind down to a retreat pace, to go within and connect to yourself and nature.
