I was pleasantly surprised by the quality of the hotel compared to its price. The room was spacious and clean, with a lovely terrace offering stunning beach views at sunset. The service was friendly and accommodating, going above and beyond to assist with unexpected issues. The location was convenient, with nearby dining options and a peaceful atmosphere, though lacking some attractions. The dining experience was satisfying, especially with the delicious mango. Overall, a great value for the money with a few minor drawbacks.

I loved my stay at this hotel! The room had a partial sea view from the balcony and was quiet, perfect for relaxation. The location was ideal, right beside the pier with easy access to everything I needed. The staff were incredibly friendly and even allowed me to check in early at no charge. The dining options nearby were delicious, especially the fresh fish. However, exploring the island required renting a scooter, which was convenient but an added cost. Overall, a great experience with breathtaking beach views and convenient amenities.
