The room was big and clean. It had amazing views and a nice balcony. I really appreciate the breakfast too! The staff was super friendly and warm. I book whale shark tour with the manager even it was hard because of weather and not many people.

The room lacked a mirror other than the one in the bathroom, it was pretty inconvenient.
