Reviews and Ratings
The hotel had functional rooms but needed renovation and repairs. Ants were an issue, leading to a room change. The service was top-notch and very accommodating, ensuring a good experience despite room issues. The location was excellent, right by the beach with convenient access to local amenities. The dining experience was satisfying with varied options, though pricing could be high. The facilities were well-maintained.
My stay at the hotel was absolutely delightful! The rooms had that lovely beachy vibe and offered amazing views. However, it could get a bit noisy if you have loud neighbors nearby. The service was top-notch, with a fantastic restaurant and friendly staff who always go above and beyond. The location was wonderful, with great shops and all the amenities you need for a perfect stay. The dining experience was superb, offering a variety of delicious choices. The only downside was having to pay separately for food at the hotel's restaurant.
My stay at the hotel was a mixed experience. The beach vibe and balconies outside the room were nice, but there were delays in room readiness. The noise from neighboring guests was bothersome at times.
