excellent beachfront stay
bread selectionwalking distancecentral areaswimming pool
i found the breakfast to have a good selection of food. they provided a good quantity and quality, including a whole wheat bread selection. the location is very good, with easy walking distance to central areas and various restaurants. the swimming pool was really nice..
i noticed that the shower could use a deeper clean at the lower level. otherwise, the cleanliness was mostly very good throughout the hotel and my room.
Location

the hotel is located at the quiet north end of the beach, so it is calm at night yet only a short walk to bars and restaurants. a seven eleven store is conveniently located just across from the hotel entrance. i found the location quite ideal.

FANTASTIC experience!

The resort is located right ON the beach. I stayed in a suite that included a private pool. This suite had direct access to the beach. I felt very fortunate, the suite was awesome!
The breakfast service was a little slow. Sometimes, I had to wait a bit longer for coffee.

great locationnice sizeclean roomsunattentive staffolder facilityheavy cushions
the hotel has a great location on the main road. it was still out of the noise (which i appreciated). the wifi worked very well, so i could easily stay connected. the rooms were clean and of a nice size.
the staff was not very attentive during breakfast. they did not greet guests often. i also had to set up the beach loungers myself (the cushions were very heavy). the facility looks older than in the pictures, especially the corridors.

mediocre stay with a couple bumps
chipped paintpoor soundproofing
The rooms i stayed in seems a bit tired. i found some chipped paint and the furniture look like they had seen better days. also, the soundproofing isn't great. I could hear everything happening in the hallway and next door. made it hard to get a decent night's sleep, honestly, a big deal when you're trying to relax on vacation.
