We recently discovered pure luxury and relaxation at an apartment complex run by Etienne’s Unique (EU) Apartments in Paramaribo in Suriname.
Having crossed the border from St. Laurent du Maroni (French Guyana) to Albina in Suriname, we arrived in the capital city, Paramaribo – a city I first visited in 2011. This time, we were here for a couple of tours, some relaxation and a l’il luxury so I could kick back and get some work done.
Fajalobi translates as “Hot Love” in English and it is one of a few apartments in a secure complex in the city of Paramaribo. Fajalobi is the name of the apartment which is part of a complex run by Etienne’s Unique. The apartments are situated in a lush area further away from the city centre yet still close to supermarkets, restaurant and bars.
What’s nice about the apartment complex is that you have your independence, and a full kitchen so you can opt to cook at home if you’d like, making it easier to relax, kick back, read a book and slow down. Each apartment in Etienne’s Unique is outfitted with its own fast wifi, which not all hotels have reliably in this area. The location is also incredibly quiet. Situated on Nadiastraat in Paramaribo, it is far from the city centre so you will not be awakened by noises or crowds.
Security — your own keys, locks and even an outer gate and barbed wire on the fence make this a secure and safe place to stay. You can book in advance through their website or simply call them and make a reservation.
