The hotel was the same as the pictures on their website. The room we had on the third floor was excellent with a nice size refrigerator and freezer which we used only to store some wine, water and I made some ice just because there was an ice tray. The hotel had a very convenient large ice machine. The staff were very friendly and helpful for the most part ,we had some miscommunication issues with the staff replenishing the coffee in the room but they made up for it by giving us some extra. It was no big deal. Only other issue was that when we went to lunch the first few days at the very convenient beach side restaurant the staff kept asking us if we had reservations even though the restaurant was never fully occupied. We then said we would like a reservation every day for lunch and the issue ended. The restaurant had many tables available every day so I’m not sure why they made such a requirement. The breakfast was a nice meal with a great view. Very relaxing way to start the day. There are many restaurants (8 or 9) for dinner a short walk from the hotel as well as a two small grocery stores which also sell wine and spirits, a good pizzeria ,ice cream shop, bakery and deli. Everything you would need plus a beautiful beach.

The hotel is old but kept in good condition. The location is near perfect. On our previous stays we enjoyed very much the beach cafe directly from the hotel. It had great service and food, plus tiki huts for rent. This time the cafe was closed for renovation and we had to use the next one were the beach boys were outright rude and the food is mediocre. Stay away from KKO beach!

Beautiful and clean! Staff always about to assist in anything needed. Reuben, Kelly and Kenisha at the beach bar were so great
