Reviews and Ratings
The hotel offers a range of rooms, from rustic bungalows to larger family structures, set in a beautiful setting right by the water. The service provided is outstanding, with the staff going above and beyond, although some upselling was noted. The location couldn't be better, situated on a small beach close to the port and surrounded by a tranquil bamboo-filled property. The dining experience was delicious, with breakfast being a highlight. The facilities are well-kept, making for a comfortable stay overall.
I stayed at the hotel, which had a great beachfront location and friendly staff. The rooms were clean and comfortable, though not serviced daily and the towels were old. While the restaurant set a high standard, the rooms didn't quite match up. The hotel offered a range of accommodation options, from rustic bungalows by the water to larger family structures near the pool and restaurant.
The hotel is set in pleasant grounds, offering amazing breakfast and fast service at all times. The staff is friendly and happy, providing fantastic service. The location is beautiful and well-maintained, close to the main strip of bars and restaurants. The dining experience is basic with ok options. The facilities are great.
