Good location and view …that’s it

The male staff and female owner/manager were kind and helpful. The younger women that worked there were not, they just stared at me. The view of the beach and location was the reason I booked and that was great! The food was overpriced and not that tasty. 2 drinks, appetizer and coconut shrimp was $106 USD! There should be a curfew for kids in the pool, there were plenty noisy kids in the pool very late at night.

Wish we had more days there. It was a last night stay and we booked it sight unseen. A wonderful stay with super clean rooms, plenty of towels, excellent restaurant and plenty of lounge chairs for the beach. Great atmosphere . Safe walking on beach and to shops. Would love to go back. Excellent quality for the money.

We arrived before checkin time but assumed we’d sit poolside if our room wasn’t ready. We weren’t sure where to check in since the front building had no signage. We asked at the bar and they were able to check us in early

Nice cafe/ beachfront, that’s about. Rooms reminded me of a worn out Super 8 motel in the US. Second night there was , not only booming bass music from the hotel, but from some place Nextdoor/ and it went on until 3 in the morning. None of the guest could sleep. Recliners on beach are broken, no chairs luggage racks or hook to hang wet clothing from. Shower was terrible (plumbing, fixtures and pressure). Could not wait to check out. I would not recommend this hotel to anyone. Oh, and way overpriced for what you get. Website indicated laundry, they do not.

The patio is amazing!! Staff were awesome. And the hotel is at the end of the beach which I was told by the locals Is so much better because it's cleaner and the run off from the town is way on the other side. Quiet, clean, great service. Recommend.

Our room was a little tired. Handle fell off in the shower, toilet leaks, large gaps in the door that i stuffed plastic bags into trying to keep cockroaches out. Found 3 in our room in the one night stay. The property is nice and the staff are very friendly. We never ate here, but paid 32USD for 2 pina coladas.

This place is very cute with its central pool and seating/hammocks. The beach restaurant is quaint and has great seating options and loungers. The staff is super nice and friendly! That said the room seemed clean but smelled strongly like a urinal cake/clenser. The shower was meh clean and I woke up to a big dead roach by my shoes. The walkway placement makes it noisy and people were loud as was the rolling of the cleaning crew cart right outside our door. That said, we only stayed one night and it was good.
