Centara Grand Resort & Villas was formerly the Sofitel Central. Now an impressive hotel that captures beautifully the elegance of a bygone era; fascinating Colonial style low-rise buildings, unique topiary with meticulously sculpted elephants, squirrels, and birds, 16 hectares of artistically landscaped gardens, and set on its own private beach.

I am very happy with the booking of our holiday. Kadie discussed with me our requirements - our preference for an airport and what sort of accommodation we would like and as far as I can tell she has followed it to the letter. We look forward to our trip in September

Hannah and the team did an excellent job of organising our holiday in Italy, even informing us about a train strike while we there and booking us on to a coach instead. They gave us helpful directions from the airport to the hotel. The accommodation was very good with spacious rooms, delicious breakfasts and helpful receptionists giving us directions to the city centres. All in all we had a brilliant time.
