missingWrote a review on Oct 15clean facilitiesfriendly stafflocal restaurantslimited deck chairs
Had a great time with friends, enjoying the lovely pools and the clean facilities. We explored nearby local restaurants for some authentic meals and visited a local scuba diving school for an adventure. The staff were incredibly friendly and helpful !
One downside was the limited availability of deck chairs by the pool. Sometimes it felt crowded during peak hours, which made finding a spot challenging.

Wonderful service from the staff made our stay enjoyable.
Unfortunately, we encountered a few issues during our stay. The first room we checked into had an issue with the door lock, which was quite disheartening. We were transferred to another room that, albeit comfortable, had a persistent paint smell in the evenings that made it hard to relax.

Incredible location near the beach and plenty of cafes. The pool area was clean with enough loungers. Breakfast was great with lots of options. Staff were genuinely helpful, especially Barbara, who went out of her way to assist. The room was spacious with air conditioning, making our stay very comfortable. cleanliness in the bathroom was lacking, showing signs of mold that needed more attention.

Had an awesome time relaxing in the infinity pool while enjoying a cold beer. The sun loungers were super comfy and perfect for soaking up the sun. Just a small note, sometimes the room had a light smell but it didn’t ruin my stay at all, so make sure to check out the lovely bar for some drinks! 🍹
