A Solid Stay
talented band beach proximity delicious snack damp room bad aircondition room quality
The Christmas dinner stood out. A talented band performed as we ate. The hotel's proximity to the beach is convenient, it is quite decent. They offered cocktails and snacks with full board. They were so delicious.
The room was not very nice. It felt damp, and the air conditioning did not work well. The staff were very nice and efficient and tried to make everything nice for us. I guess if we would have complained straight away, they would probably have given us a better room.

Great Place For Relaxation!
charming staff amazing food comfortable rooms architectural design
The staff are very charming and cute I found. The food is so amazing and the rooms are very comfortable for a restful sleep. The architectural design is a marvel. The evening bands provide great entertainment.
The service can be quite wanting because of understaffing sometimes.

nice stay, some issues
good lighting ceiling fan evening musician room overcharge high water price standard practice
i thought the room was nice with good lighting options. there was ac and a ceiling fan. the knob adjusted right at the bed, that's cool. i liked the jazzy evening musicians, a real laid back vibe for sure.
i constantly got overcharged for the room. i paid twice. i checked in first for one night to see if i liked it. it seems standard practice. the place sells water in glass bottles at a ridiculous price. like 2,5 usd for a 750ml bottle.
