Lourens and Rosemary have lovingly taken on the building of Por do Sol Holiday Homes and the completed product is unique in many aspects.

Por do Sol Holiday Homes consists of 10 double storey units, built of brick and mortar with corrugated iron roofs and tiled floors...a true home away from home. Local bricks, made from clay unique to the area, have been used creating a lovely effect. The material used for the railings that surround the verandas is local Palm tree wood and is very durable and sturdy. Downstairs the unit is tiled throughout (including the veranda), whilst plywood floors have been used for the floors upstairs.
Each unit sleeps up to 6 people and is equipped with 3 bedrooms, 1 downstairs and 2 upstairs. The upstairs bedrooms share a bathroom (with shower and basin only) and a separate toilet. The downstairs bathroom (with bath and shower) and separate toilet also doubles as guest facilities and is not directly connected to the downstairs bedroom.
