Like most travellers, I always want to enjoy the destination to the maximum, making sure every minute is well spent by visiting and experiencing as many attractions on my bucket list. It would be super nice if I can do something extra special like staying at a heritage building that is strategically located such as the accommodation I recently experienced on my trip to the historical city of Melaka, Casugria Boutique Residence (Casugria). The name is actually a combination of the Portuguese words Casa Susegadu Alegria, which mean ‘House of Contentment and Happiness’. True to its name, this boutique guesthouse provides an authentic Malaccan experience and hospitality, given the fact that its owner and his family are living here as well. Thus, travellers can expect to learn not only about this heritage charm, but a brief history of Melaka and its vibrant communities. Furthermore, Casugria is merely 10 to 15 minutes away by car to Melaka’s UNESCO World Heritage Site.
