The brilliant Kahbana
We loved our stay at The Kahbana. Great location, beautiful views and it was equipped with everything we could possibly need. We loved the three different outdoor areas and the beautiful bay window surrounding the dining space. Having an evaporative air conditioner to cool the whole house and a split system to additionally cool the living space (along with ceiling fans) was awesome. We certainly hope to return.
