Acceptable Stay, Some Issues

The room remained clean .

I encountered an issue with the provided room key. Only one was issued, a limitation when two guests are present, so I suggest rectifying this policy.

The beach was not good for swimming. It was full of stones and without sand. at checkout, i was charged for two glasses my daughter broke by accident. this seemed a very bad customer policy.

the staff were very helpful. they assisted with taxi arrangements and contacted the boat company when it rained. they used their pickup car to transport us through flooded streets to the taxi. the room was big and very clean. it was quiet at night so i could sleep well.

the wifi signal was inconsistent, frequently disconnecting! this proved slightly annoying.
