Wonderful Beachfront Stay

The hotel boasts a fine, private beach location. I found the warm, shallow waters perfect for swimming. There were many free sun loungers available too. The staff were consistently friendly and helpful, which i appreciated. I loved the massive, clean pool and that my beds were super huge and comfy. My room was spotlessly cleaned daily, this was very nice.

laundry spotconvenient laundryeasy tuk tukboring breakfastlimited breakfastdangerous shower

The location was great directly on the beach. i found a laundry spot steps away and a pharmacy very nearby. Both were very convenient. it was easy to get a tuk tuk from the main road, a necessity for accessing the main area of restaurants and shops.

i found the breakfast to become boring very quickly. the shower over the bath felt very dangerous. also, the hotel felt a bit away from everything so i needed either a bike or a cab to get around.
