Welcome to Timeless Haven & Cottage
Discover excellent service
Seventeen in total; eight cottages and nine rooms. Never more guests than we can learn the names of, which means the person who checks you in is the person who remembers, three days later, that you take your coffee black and your breakfast late.
Each one sits apart from the others along a sand path, with its own veranda or garden. Breakfast comes to your door at whatever hour you name the night before. The spa, and the restaurants at Timeless Haven & Cottage are few minutes along the shore when you want them.

Guest notes
“We booked two nights in Superior Room and extended twice from the deck. I have never had a hotel remember, without being asked, that we wanted breakfast at ten and not eight.”
“Took Ash Bubble for my mother's seventieth with nine of us in and out all week. The kitchen is a real kitchen, the pool kept the children occupied, and nobody once made us feel like a large group in a small place.”
“I came alone to finish a piece of work and did, mostly. Mini Suite is one room, a desk and a veranda, and that turns out to be the whole list of things I needed.”
“White Bubbly opens straight onto the pool, which our daughter treated as a personal discovery. Breakfast came at the hour we asked for, every single morning, without a reminder.”
“I booked one night on a whim after a long week in Lagos and left wishing I had taken three. Quiet, spotless, and close enough to the water to hear it with the door open.”
