The hotel has a lovely compact room with a nice view and friendly staff, but the cleanliness standards have really dropped and the discomfort of the bed was quite disappointing. While the location is appealing for a beach getaway, the overall experience was marred by numerous cleanliness issues and misleading dining options that left a sour taste.

Rooms

The room we stayed in was compact and had a nice view but the double bed was uncomfortable, made by pushing two singles together, and really needed improvement for more comfort.

I had a wonderful stay at this hotel. The room was clean and enjoyable, especially with the soothing views of the beach. The staff was friendly and made sure we were comfortable. However, I found the dining options to be rather limited, and the facilities could use some upgrades. Overall, it offers great value for a beachside retreat, but don't expect modern luxury throughout.

I had a relaxing stay at this resort with individually owned apartments, but the quality really depends on the specific unit. While our room was a bit dated, it was comfortable enough and came with two balconies, which was nice. The nearby dining options were limited, but we found a couple of good spots within walking distance. The main downside was the lack of cooling in the second bedroom and the Wi-Fi situation, which could definitely be improved.

Rooms

Our two-bedroom unit was a bit dated but comfortable, featuring split systems in the living area and the master bedroom. However, the second bedroom lacked cooling, which was a downside.
