Arthur, Mar 2025
Pros (+) No water provided in room. I was told ,"we have a water station on first floor." I said, do you have a bottle I can put it in? They said, no, you have to bring your own. I asked, do you sell water?...no, they do not. None of this indicated prior to booking. White chairs on balcony were covered in dirt...if you weren't paying attention, your clothes turned black. Zero water pressure in shower. I wo...
Cons (-) Sorry, reversed it...location on the beach was very nice and the rooms were large but that was really about it. Not coming back.

Pros (+) The breakfast was good and the location was fine; however, the personnel was understaffed. We had to wait often to be seated because the wait staff was only one and she had to help in the kitchen, wait tables and seat guests.
Cons (-) See problem mentioned above.

Dale, Oct 2024
Pros (+) Secluded beach, amazing pools and jacuzzies and great bar food and drinks. Rooms were a perfect size and bed very comfortable.
Cons (-) Sadly the outside bar closes fairly early so was a bit disappointed with that. A bit far out from any of the towns, but can understand with the private beach.
