Lovingly designed
to within an inch of its life, this modernist boutique guesthouse is the most eye-catching
building in town. There are only four big rooms here, all painted in pastel colours, with
huge beds. There's a communal lounge and, best of all, a fantastic roof terrace with com-
manding views across the bay.

amenities and guesthouse hospitality, Sun Beach is a superb midranger. Its neo-classical
