Charming Coastal Stay
beachfront location shaded space scuba diving
I found the beachfront location quite amazing. The pool area features about twenty loungers, along with a shaded space. Water sports like scuba diving and snorkeling are available onsite. I enjoyed the snorkeling trip a lot.
The breakfast menu remained the same daily. A little variety would enhance the experience.
Location
9/10
The hotel boasts a prime position directly on the beach, displaying white sand especially during low tide periods.. Corals are visible, and various marine species inhabit the area very close to the hotel. This proximity allowed easy access to scenic views.
Dining
9/10
Breakfast offered ample choices. It was great. The bar provides dinner service right by the sea, complemented by a cool breeze. The bar food was really good and the prices seemed reasonable to me.

Wonderful Hotel Experience
cute staff oceanfront location really good service
The staff were warm and cute. I appreciated the oceanfront location, including comfortable rooms and views. The service was really good. Staff were really nice too.
The small pool does have problems. No one is fixing the pool yet. This impacts my enjoyment . I hope the management considers fixing it.
