Great beach hotel
Great beach hotel with beautiful garden. Beds are amazingly comfortable. Service really good and efficient.Safe has been fixed within couple of minutes. We had a dinner in the restaurant and food was very good. Breakfast could have with a bit more options but was ok.Coffee very tasty and that was the most important to me. Hotel is on the beach which is been taken care of but when you step a couple of meters away the beach is full of rubbish.But I understand it is a common problem in that part of the world,and hotel manager can not do anything about it. Generally experience was really great,good value for money. Thanks very much Giraffe Beach Hotel.
