Our city break at the hotel was a pleasant one. The staff was very helpful and made us feel welcomed throughout our stay. The location of the hotel was great, being right on the beach and only a short walk away from the village and other restaurants and bars. The room was spacious and clean, and we were impressed by the view. Additionally, the hotel provided transfers for us whenever needed.
There were a few aspects that could be improved. the breakfast options were average and could have had more variety.

The breakfast was simple but tasty with fruit, pancakes, toast, and eggs. The staff was helpful, even assisting with our luggage on our last day. The pool was clean and a great alternative to the ocean, which had lots of sea urchins. The location was good, with a beautiful view of the sea and close to restaurants.
We were charged extra for paying with a credit card and the bathroom had no ventilation, making it difficult to keep clean. Although this is not the hotel's fault, there are many sea urchins on the beach and in the ocean.

Our stay at this beach resort was amazing! The location was absolutely beautiful, with palm trees and a stunning view of the beach. The swimming pool was large and well-maintained, perfect for relaxing and cooling off. The staff, particularly Haji, went above and beyond to make our experience enjoyable. We felt right at home, especially since there were very few other guests. If you're looking for a peaceful and secluded getaway, the bungalows are the way to go. The beach was pristine and the low tide offered an interesting experience. The small local restaurant in the village served delicious and affordable seafood. we had a great time and would highly recommend this hotel.
