it was quite and not very busy. No kids! Breakfast was good. Staff was exceptional.

Nick United States of America

Everything was amazing! The breakfast was huge - lots of choices and and delicious. The staff was eager to help and always smiling. The room exceeded expectations! With a view on the sea and amazing sunset! The monkeys stealing chips from the kitchen from time to time was just added entertainment! It’s quiet, relaxing and a very romantic place for couples. Loved the location too, close to the beaches and the fire show on the beach. The Chill Bar on the other side of the street served the best drinks. We didn’t want to leave!

Nelvana Canada

Absolutely an excellent place to stay. The views are million-dollar, the sunsets, the incredible staff, the pool, enough loungers and seats for all guests, just 100% great stay. Quiet, private, chill.

Anonymous Canada

The care and attention afforded by Eric and the entire Houben team was second to none. Beautiful room overlooking the ocean (as they all are), very good choice for breakfast. Courteous and helpful staff all the way. We didn't want to leave and hope to be back soon. Thanks All ❤️

Mark United Kingdom

Pool was red. Never seen that before. The View is excellent. We could see the sun setting. We didn't have the breakfast we were too busy exploring. We managed to rent a scooter just a 2 minute walk away and went to lots of the beaches. I recommend renting a scooter then turning right when leaving the property and going straight to the lighthouse at the end of the road then go to all the beaches on the way back up. Lots of exploring necessary and you're well rewarded. The food up the road at the Rock restaurant was incredible. Pad See Ew with egg noodles was insanely good.

Dunn United Arab Emirates

Superb place. Very good personnel always help you or recommend for you. Very good cocktails in bar and very delicious breakfast. In evening time also working restaurant there with good choice and delicious meals. Pool and Jacuzzi a very good. The room are very spacy with big soft bed. The best thing in this hotel is a view.
