I loved everyone and the place was amazing. They went out of their way to help.

Natalie Canada

This guest house is an oasis of peace. We loved everything about it! the rooms are spacious, clean and filled with character. the hostess and her staff are wonderful. Breakfast was a selection of delicious breads, cheese, meats, orange juice freshly made from oranges on the farm, etc., and served in a gorgeous renovated historical building.

The owner of the place gave an excellent service. I felt extremely welcome. When I left, i forgot a bit of my luggage, and the owner called me to know where I was, found me and gave me my things. But during my stay I was treated with the beat of service. Would absolutely like to retur and stay for more days. Best wishes for Casa Mindela and kusses from Jane from Denmark
