The suite with garden view was cozy, featuring a comfortable seating area and a lovely balcony to relax on. The beach access was incredible, giving us that private feel, and the staff were friendly and helpful throughout our stay.
The food could be better, some dishes felt overpriced.

Is it hype or the real deal?
This place is a hidden gem! ! Clean and cozy with an amazing pool area. The beach is pristine, and staff is genuinely kind, ready to help with everything.
The lack of air conditioning made nights nearly unbearable, with sweltering heat. The food prices seemed excessive, which could deter some from enjoying meals on-site.

The pool area with three beautiful pools was a delight! They serve tasty meals, and the spacious suite had a lovely garden view that made me feel quite posh.
The beach was lovely, but swimming? Well, let’s just say you might need a paddle to play in the tide! Also, the evening scene felt a bit like a ghost town.

The suite with partial ocean view was stunning, and the beach access was perfect for snorkeling. We had a fantastic time swimming with dolphins, organized by the hotel. The private beach felt like our own slice of paradise, and we loved the cozy vibe around the pools.

The suite with garden view was fantastic. It had air conditioning, a private bathroom, and a terrace with outdoor furniture. The food was tasty, and the staff was super helpful. The pool area was relaxing with sun loungers. The beach felt private, with no debris at all. The massage at the spa was a real treat!
