Wonderful Beachfront Stay
private beachfriendly staff
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.

The hotel featured a beautiful swimming pool with clean water. I noticed the pool area had plenty of sun loungers. There was good access to shops and restaurants near the hotel.
Rooms
8/10
My beach bungalow offered fine views of the beach and sea. I had literally steps away from my sunbed. My terrace was adequate. The location allows quick access to the beach.
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.
