I had a lovely stay at this hotel, where the bungalow rooms are comfortable and equipped with good air conditioning and ceiling fans. The helpful reception staff and friendly restaurant team greatly enhanced my experience. While the beach isn't inviting due to broken glass and murky water, the hotel offers fantastic opportunities to see dolphins nearby. The breakfast could use some consistency, as it varied from day to day, but overall, I found it a great value for money.

The location is somewhat secluded, but it's close to dolphin watching spots, which was a highlight. The beach itself, however, was not very inviting.

Breakfast was a bit quirky; some days it was lovely with fruit and eggs, and others it was lacking with only sausages available. More variety would improve the experience.

I had a lovely stay at this beachfront resort, feeling a nice blend of tropical relaxation and adventure. The clean bungalows were comfortable, and I appreciated the beautiful views. While the dining options were somewhat limited, especially at breakfast, and the beach wasn’t ideal for sunbathing, I enjoyed my overall experience. The staff were incredibly welcoming, which added to the charm, but it’s worth noting that Wi-Fi was only available in specific areas of the resort.

I had a mixed experience at this hotel. The clean and spacious rooms were a definite highlight, and the friendly reception staff made me feel welcome right away. However, the dining experience was a letdown, especially the breakfast options which were quite basic. The location gave a beachy feel, but it was a bit misleading regarding its seclusion. I appreciated the complimentary Wi-Fi in the main building, but overall, there were some service inconsistencies during my stay.
