Top Accommodation
It’s actually approaching 1 whole year since I’ve been home and I still think about my amazing trip every day without fail. Not long after I came back, I actually wrote a list of the favourite places that I stayed during the 6 months. These are a mixture of places I booked for myself through STA Travel or placed I stayed in on tour. I will try to provide as much information as I can about each place!
Note- Click the name of the accommodation to view the official website (if it has one)! Prices will be for 1 night stay and current to the time of writing this post. So bare in mind that depending on seasons, holidays, peak periods, prices will vary. For the last 2 in the list, sadly I was unable to find much information online regarding prices or official websites for the exact places I stayed.
