Great stay overall

My stay was great. The facilities and the staff were really nice. One small issue I faced was that the TV was not working in my room but the hotel service team was cooperative and replaced it as soon as I informed them.

Great place for beach holiday

The hotel has everything needed for perfect beach stay. The rooms are located in small houses on the beach. Rooms are simple but well maintained and have everything needed. Beach is equipped with sun beds and umbrellas, there’s a swimming pool. Snoopy island with beautiful sea life is easily accessible if you can swim. Make sure to take your snorkel mask with you.
