Reviews and Ratings
My stay at the hotel was filled with contrasting experiences. The rooms were cozy, clean, and had a lovely view from the 2nd floor, complete with outdoor seating and a hammock for relaxation. The storage was ample, making my stay comfortable. However, I had an unsettling encounter with aggressive individuals near the cabanas on the premises, which tainted my overall impression.
I had an amazing stay at this hotel! The rooms were exceptional, from the decor to the comfort, and the location is perfect, right on the beach with stunning views. The service was top-notch, with the staff going above and beyond to make our stay special. The dining experience was delicious, especially the pancakes, and the facilities were outstanding.
The hotel offers beautifully decorated rooms with lovely terraces for sunbathing but may suffer from noise from a nearby bar. The service is outstanding, with very kind and helpful staff. The location is great for those seeking a quieter beachfront experience, albeit lacking engagement from management. The dining experience is praised for its fresh and delicious offerings.
