Reviews and Ratings
Staying at this hotel was a dream come true! The rooms were huge and beautiful, adorned with lovely flowers on the bed, offering commanding views over the beach. Dining and breakfast by the speckled colored lit pool were simply magical. The service was splendid, with extremely friendly staff willing to help with anything, making me feel right at home. The location couldn't be better, situated right on a beautiful stretch of nearly deserted beach, perfect for soaking in peaceful solitude. The dining experience was not just good but excellent, offering tailored options that made every meal delightful.
The hotel offers stunning views of the swimming pool and the ocean from the beautiful but not-so-clean rooms, which are spacious and very comfortable. The service is exceptional with extraordinarily friendly staff catering to every need. The location, right on a beautiful beach and walking distance to a bird sanctuary, is superb, although it lacks some evening atmosphere. The dining experience features a delicious variety that changes daily, making mealtime a delight. Overall, a great stay with a few areas that could be improved.
I had a wonderful stay at this hotel! The rooms were spacious, beautifully decorated with a wood floor and tasteful wooden furnishings that created a cozy ambiance. Stepping out to the pool area was such a treat, and the room design was inspired by local turtle species, adding a unique touch. The rooms were huge, well-appointed, and incredibly comfortable, making my stay extra pleasant.
