" - "Liked: Jacuzzi/ Spa available: excellent for cold days/ nights. A perfect spot to relax Very close to the night market, rentals, groceries & restaurants Clean and well maintained Disliked: - Zero flexibility/ tolerance for people with late flights at day of departure/check-out. Need to leave the premises and find a place to kill time. Unfortunately, this piece of information is only made available after a booking has been made.

It was absolutely amazing having the view of the ocean from the room, verandah and the private pool. Breakfast option was adequate and even on arrival they were generous to provide us complimentary breakfast as we arrived a little earlier than check-in. The restaurant was also great - we had the seafood buffet along with live entertainment. The beach was beautiful but a little rocky and shallow to go snorkelling. You’ll need aqua shoes and go out far from shore to enjoy the snorkelling. Overall, had a great time at this hotel and highly recommend! "
