Reviews and Ratings
My stay at the hotel was delightful overall. The rooms were spacious, clean, and had a perfect-comfy bed, although the decor felt a little dated. The service was a bit lacking in consideration for guests' rest, but the reef and staff were notable. The location was beautiful and well-kept, with easy access to the sea. The dining offered a range of options, especially enjoyable at the pool bar.
I had a great stay with my two friends at this hotel. Our rooms each had a balcony overlooking the bay, providing a refreshing escape from the scorching 40-degree heat outside. The scenery was fantastic, though unfortunately, we couldn't extend our stay in the same rooms due to prior bookings.
Staying at the hotel was a mixed experience. The location was fantastic, just off the beach, with great snorkeling opportunities, but some parts of the property were still under renovation. The service was attentive, but the dining options were mediocre.
As three female friends, we found the hotel very convenient with the additional entry from the garden providing easy access to the pool and beach. Even though the room seemed a little tired, it was cleaned daily and perfect for sleeping and showering. The food was brilliant, and as a fussy eater, I never went hungry; if anything, I came home weighing more than when I arrived.
I was just a few rooms away from the main bar where they have live music every evening, and I could still hear it from my room, so I recommend asking for a room further away if you prefer peace and quiet. The room I stayed in hadn't been renovated and didn't offer a sea view, but it was very clean overall.
Our stay at the hotel was amazing! The room had a great sea view and was kept very clean with daily high standard cleaning. The staff were friendly and went above and beyond to make us comfortable. The location was perfect for snorkeling and water activities, and the dining options were varied. The facilities were all well-kept and enjoyable.
