In 2014,  I ended my search for a home for Firefly Boutique hotel. Within the  ancient coral rock walls of Abdun’s Palace, Firefly unfolded and found her voice…..So began the year and a half restoration, and subsequent, gentle segue into all that Firefly has since become…  An embrace,  a work in progress, a constant learning, unfolding and breathing adventure. The heart smiles, each gentle call to prayer on the fragrant breeze, the sensuous and heady sandalwood wood fires, the coconut trees swaying freely, unencumbered by their age old wisdom, all a part of our symbiosis.
