    great restaurants
    missing pool

    Staying here was fantastic! Our room had a sea view, and the sunsets from our patio were stunning. The beach was right outside, and we loved the easy access to local shops and restaurants. The highlight was a beach massage which was so relaxing.

    In my wife’s opinion, a pool would have been a great addition for the kids.

    beachfront location
    uncomfortable shower
    lack of privacy

    Right on the beach with private lounge chairs.

    The shower had no hot water, only cool temperature. It felt invigorating at first, but it quickly became uncomfortable, especially in the early morning. The bathroom door lacked privacy, resembling a closet door, which made my family feel exposed.

    beachfront location
    friendly staff
    hammocks available
    uncomfortable beds

    Had an amazing time with friends during our 7-night stay! We loved the location right on the beach and took the area shuttle to visit a nearby national park and a local waterfall. The friendly staff made our visit memorable, and the hammocks by the beach were a great spot to relax.

    The beds could use a bit more comfort, but it didn't ruin our stay.

    inadequate seating

    A lack of air circulation in the bathroom was annoying due to the absence of a fan. The locking mechanism inside the room was concerning, requiring a key to unlock, which could pose safety issues during emergencies. Additionally, some seating options felt inadequate with just a fold-out couch and a single chair, forcing you to huddle uncomfortably while indoors.

    friendly staff
    sea view
    high restaurant prices
    weak drinks

    The location was absolutely perfect, right in the heart of all the action and steps away from the beach. The staff went out of their way to assist us, making our stay memorable. Although the restaurant prices were quite high and drinks on the weak side, the food quality was commendable. Our room had a spectacular sea view, and we loved lounging in the hammocks by the shore.

    The beachfront location was breathtaking! I loved relaxing on the hammocks with the sound of waves. Just a bit uncomfortable beds though. Wish there were more options on the menu. 🌊
