Lakaz is basically a set of bungalows, each individually designed and each with its own outside shower, which is great, set into the hillside of an old banana plantation. You are invited to make yourself at home and you can. There is a pool. You can pay a flat fee for drinks and just go to the fridge when you are thirsty. there is fresh fruit to be had all day.
The staff are unfailingly helpful and friendly and totally unobtrusive.
The manager used to be a chef for one of the 5-star hotels on the coast, so the kitchen is unbeatable.
You can visit the coloured earths and tea plantations easily and also go abseiling down immense river gorges or by the sides of a waterfall.
There is dolphin viewing and bike riding to be had. A visit to the beach takes about 15 minutes by bike, on the way down, it is a bit harder on the way up so beware:)
If you like being a bit away from it all, but still with plenty of things to do in a friendly and relaxed atmsphere, this is the place for you.
