    friendly staff
    dirty bathroom
    insufficient towels

    Staff was friendly and welcoming during our stay.

    The bathroom in our room was not clean at all. There were remnants of soap marks in the shower caddy and the floor was dirty. We didn’t have enough towels for the three of us, even though the room was meant for four guests.

    great location

    we had a lovely stay at this hotel. the location was perfect, just a short walk to the lagoon, beach, and various restaurants. breakfast was delicious and very affordable. the staff were super friendly, especially when we mentioned the noise from children in the hallway—they quickly moved us to a quieter room, which we really appreciated.

    i do recommend.

    Family with children friendly

    The pool was well kept and my kids loved it, they spent hours splashing around. Breakfast was lovely, with a great variety of options that even my picky eaters enjoyed.

    It wasn't exactly a bargain but still acceptable for what we got.

    Wonderful Family Getaway

    Our family enjoyed a cozy stay with a spacious room that easily accommodated us. The breakfast spread was incredible, with plenty of delicious options to start the day. Don't miss out on exploring the nearby beach and restaurants, just a short walk away!

    Beautiful location, great breakfast, but bar needs attention

    The hotel offers stunning views and an impressive breakfast spread with fresh pastries and local fruits. Our room was spacious and quiet, providing a comfortable stay. However, the experience at the bar was disappointing. the sticky surfaces and rude service made it uninviting.

    maintenance issues

    The Standard Family Room was a bit dated but super clean. The bed was comfy, and the linen was fresh and white. The coffee-making facilities and minibar fridge were nice touches. I liked having a desk to catch up on some work too. Overall, it felt cozy, but some maintenance would help freshen things up a bit.

    Cozy, cozy, cozy

    The decor was an inviting blend of charm and warmth. The bed? Super comfy, I melted into it every night! And let’s talk breakfast, a vibrant buffet that fueled my adventures each morning.
