- "Excellent service with friendly staff. The food was delicious. The rooms are beautiful and very spacious" - "An exceptional hotel. Only eight rooms, so it felt very special. The room was ultra luxurious with the most incredible view. The food was superb. The staff very friendly. Nothing was too much trouble. The location is next to a fabulous beach, unspoilt and quiet. The hotel grounds were beautiful. I would love to stay again soon." - "I liked the staff welcoming, they made us feel welcomed. It was like arriving at home. The location was perfect for driving from EL, the drive from the main road was just under 1 km. I enjoyed the food, it showed by presentation and taste that it was it was prepared by an experienced chef. The amenities were more that enough, some staff we even forgot we needed it and we remembered when they were presented to us to make our stay extra stay. I really cannot say enough about the staff's outstanding hospitality, you just need to stay at Prana to understand it."
