Great location with four beautiful pools, that we always had to ourself. Wouldn’t recommend the plunge pools as the water was pretty stagnant. Great view of the sunset from the beach bar. Surfboard rental prices were a lot more than other locations nearby so shop around. Comfy beds, warm showers and a little oasis of plants and free range chickens.

The room and the hotel are amazing. However, the staff of the hotel is a little snarky. The prices for food and drinks are a little too expensive. However, the room is amazing, the pool is clean and amazing. The access to the ocean is really great as well. Overall, good stay, the staff could improve though.

Very nice property overall. Not actually on the beach but very close with a few houses, (Bunga Loose) being in front and blocking much of the views. Staff is absolutely great. We had ocean views with a private rooftop plunge pool. Would stay again.
