delicious portionsamazing yoga
The location was super convenient. It was a very short walk to the beach and restaurants!!! The breakfast portions were generous and delicious. Yoga was included and it was an amazing start to each day.
The bar closed a little early. I wish it stayed open a little later.

comfy bedamazing coffeesmall roomsmall pool
The staff seemed friendly. My Hammock Garden Room included a big bathroom and a comfy bed. The included breakfast tasted good and the coffee was amazing. I liked the availability of surf boards.
The hotel now looks tired. My Hammock Garden Room was small and the door hitted the bedside table when you entered. The pool is on the small side and its not the type you can sunbake around since it's part of the bar and cafe area. I think the per day room rate is expensive.
