Great service throughout the stay! Good breakfast, pool areas for the kids and friendly staff.
Hotel was in a great location, easily accessible to everything and the beach was a five minute walk. Very clean room. The only bad thing was the sewage smell, in the bathroom and near the pools.
The sea view room on the top floor was great. Big space, nice bed, big terrace and big bathroom with bath tub and shower room separate. Hotel garden it is nice, though can be noisy sometimes as next to busy road, resort. Staff are nice and kind. Breakfast was alright.
The hotel is lovely, and the staff are incredibly friendly and accommodating . The breakfast was amazing and there was a great variety.
Location is good but area a bit touristy overall
Good breakfast, polite stuff, nice area but room are outdated and somehow poorly made…lot of mosquitos but that is normal for tropical area…cant say bad but not my taste
