    The value for money was great, and our room was comfortable with a nice big tub in the bathroom. The location was central and convenient for our excursions, and the staff treated us with exceptional friendliness and attentiveness throughout our stay.

    The breakfast options could use a bit more variety to avoid it becoming monotonous.

    The hotel is situated in a prime location by the beach with beautiful views of both the mountains and the sea. It's close to all major attractions and provides easy access to the beach down the hill. The rooms have modern finishes, envious bathrooms, and comfortable bedding. The staff provides excellent service and makes you feel at home. The hotel offers a delicious breakfast fit for royalty and has well-kept grounds.

    The hotel is not within walking distance of any restaurants or bars.

    As a tourist, I loved the central location of the hotel, making it convenient for all excursions on our itinerary. The chef catered to our needs and the staff went out of their way to suggest and book activities like diving with sharks and horse riding. The recently updated unit had a generous bathroom and spacious rooms. The breakfast was standard, which was great for someone like me who is fussy about food. The staff were friendly and accommodating, making our stay enjoyable.

    Felt like visiting family, no complaints at all.

    The rooms were spacious and comfortable with beautiful sea views. The pool was warm and clean, and the restaurant staff were friendly and accommodating. The breakfast was delicious, with perfectly cooked eggs and a great selection of dishes. The staff went out of their way to make our stay enjoyable.

    The rooms were quite far from the parking area, which could be difficult for people with injuries or mobility issues. The bathroom was too dark at night and could use more lighting.

    We loved the spacious and comfortable room with a private verandah, providing a perfect place to relax. The location of this place was incredibly convenient, just a short drive away from the beautiful beaches, restaurants, and shopping center. The staff here, especially Elizebie, were friendly and welcoming, always going above and beyond to ensure we had a pleasant stay. The breakfast served was absolutely delicious, and the room was impeccably cleaned daily. The hotel's amenities such as the generator and strong wifi made our stay even more comfortable. We truly enjoyed the peaceful and quiet atmosphere here.

    We highly recommend this hotel to all.
