Reviews and Ratings
The hotel is situated right on the beautiful and serene beachfront, offering large, clean, and tastefully decorated rooms. The service is absolutely wonderful, with staff being extremely helpful and friendly, although not particularly child-friendly. The location is amazing, providing direct access to a quieter part of the beach away from the touristy areas and within a short distance to the town center. The dining experience is delightful, featuring fresh tropical fruits and homemade jam delivered to the room in a cute basket. Overall, the facilities are excellent, making for a pleasant stay.
The hotel's location by the beach is fantastic, and the rooms, although needing a refurb in the bathroom, are spacious and equipped for a comfortable stay. The service was helpful and friendly, even offering a discount for an inconvenience. However, housekeeping missed sweeping for a while. The peaceful location is ideal for enjoying the beach and a quiet escape, but it may be a bit secluded for some. The dining experience was delightful, especially with the homemade breakfast items. The facilities provided a lovely dining experience, but some aspects need improvement.
The bungalow on the beach was not what we expected. The room was uncomfortable with a flooded bathroom and lacking basic furniture like a chair or table. The condition looked worn and in need of refurbishment, posing safety concerns for older guests. However, the location offered a mix of tranquility and inconvenience being a bit far from town.
