The Story
Born in the same village which gives the resort its name, Haji Mohammad Hussain and his family were keen to create something new, something more than just a home for themselves and within the village where they were born. Having worked as a farmer in the same village they planned to build their own property sustainably and over years worked and poured ideas that finally ended as an organic resort.
