the location was directly on the beach, a real plus. the staff were consistently helpful, especially with directions! a highlight was the variety at breakfast, many choices were available. though the parking was expensive, i found the convenience worth it.

the staffs are very SUPPORTIVE. on my first day, saha offered me early check-in before i asked. it. every morning the beach was cleaned, and beds were set up for use. the hotel provided extra towels in our room.
We kept complaining about ac but it wasnt working in our room, no action taken. it was a holiday, i wanted to relax. the food was repetitive everyday during both breakfast and dinner. private events was hosted during dinner. We wasnt given priority, even after paying in advance.

My room smelled strongly of mildew and the furniture seemed quite old. also. The breakfast area had quite a few insects flying around the overripe fruit. That was not appetizing, the coffee was weak too. these issues impacted the experience negatively.

Excellent Beachfront Hotel Experience

beachfront locationseafront roomexcellent facilitiesfriendly staff
The location directly on the beach was a HUGE plus. I was given a superior seafront room upgrade with a fantastic view. On my last day, the hotel provided a shower room and use of all facilities (a nice touch because of my late flight). All the staff were lovely. They were friendly and helpful.
The tv had limited channels, mostly just news, so entertainment options in the room were lacking.

I booked an ocean view room and I got a wall view with some drain pipes hanging in front of me. The receptionist told me it was the best room they had so I told them I did not book this room. She replied that I could see the ocean when I peeked from the balcony (.. ) breakfast was basic and the buffet food quantity was not enough for all guests.
