Absolutely LOVED the stay here! Gorgeous views, staff were very friendly and great to work with and sort out any issues (or AC split stopped working for a moment and they quickly resolved the issue). The kitchen amenities helped us make an absolutely stunning dinner one night! This place is great!

From the moment I checked in to check out it was a brilliant stay .. The room wasnt ready when I arrived but I was early and within the house reception phoned and let me know it was ready , stayed in the ocean villa and it was perfect. The day of my check out I was flying 10pm so I asked for a late check out and they were able to give me to 2pm which was great and at no extra cost. I’ll definitely be coming back and highly recommend

We stayed in the villas with a private pool and it was absolutely phenomenal. The suite itself is absolutely beautiful, clean and well-maintained and so much space for at least six people, and it was just me and my friend. We are definitely planning our stay back here as the staff was also extremely helpful and kind.

The area is super nice! Walking distance to two beautiful beaches, both with beachside restaurants, paddleboard rentals, etc… The hotel is intimate, almost closer to a BNB than a hotel. This is not a luxury hotel, but I felt like we found a gem of a place to stay with great service, continental breakfast, private pool

Spacious villa with AC and private pool. Reserved parking lot in the garage. Bedroom and bathroom a bit unpractical, as almost no furniture and no opportunity to hang towels. Big living room, well equipped kitchen. Beautiful beach just 15 min walk.
