Nice breakfast and food Hospitality Culture preservation and mingling

Payment service Dollar rate not normal in case you want to use local currency Drinking water refill delay No arranged group activities

Everybody was super friendly and we felt so comfortable. The semi private beach was also a big plus

Wifi coverage iffy at times. Good for disconnecting from work, frustrating when you want to message your group or do basic google searches. Street vendors being inteusive when you want to walk on the beach and enjoy

location and comfortability

socket were different from what we have.

perfect location , beautiful beach excellent service and nice staff !!

Beach, the location and the staff

Rooms in general feel old, food could improve and the service itself was a bit slow and not always helpful. In general would need a bit of restyling.

Very disappointed. The photos on booking.com, the website and the companies social media do not reflect the current state of the property. There were major changes that have been done, like removing a beautiful spa pool and replacing it with a swim up bar (that was not functioning, just a cooler and some bottles on the counter, and no bar tender our entire stay). Yes I spoke to management, and yes I emailed booking.com, no one could be bothered. After 3 days management spoke with me, and I expressed by concerns that they should update photos to reflect the current conditions... but the photos are still up. On top of that, the breakfast was lack luster, we only ate it one day, then went off grounds for the rest of the meals. Mosquitos filled our room, and the bug nets all had holes. The walls of the rooms were paper thin, you could hear everything next door, in the halls and outside. The rooms and grounds are MUCH more dated than the pictures show. Overall the location was fine, but this is not the level of hotel we were expecting.

Beach is wonderful. Staff is nice and friendly. Food is good, always past, it seems you are in Italy as it is a Hôtel full of Italian people.

Gym is in really poor conditions, any machine ready for aérobic, neither elíptic, neither bike, neither belt… Better to close it.

I liked the scenery and how close we was to the beach, the sunsets were amazing.

The staff, Bernard was extremely rude and had an attitude. The language barrier is difficult. Food is not good, no flavour, same thing everyday. Mosquitos were bad and lots of insects. Our room telephone wasn’t working, even though we complained, nobody came to fix it.

Beautiful beach

Facilities

Perfect customer service from Reception to Restaurant,

Pool water was too cold but other than that everything was perfect.

The outside of the hotel was good. The food was great

The staff were so unfriendly. The service was terrible. Their billing and room charges were a disaster. The rooms are not cleaned properly. Blankets smelled so bad. Not a family friendly hotel

Great location. Fab food. Great trips booked from hotel.
