Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort
The staff was very helpful - walked me around the first day to ensure I got where I needed to go, made breakfast a little early for me so I could make it to diving on time, always smiled and greeted me. The room was very comfortable - clean, quiet, big. I really appreciated being just across the street from the main strip - it was a 2 minute walk away when I wanted it, but also a world away when I didn’t.

The rooms are clean and modern and the resturant serves good quality food. The breakfast however lets it down. There was a limilted fruit selection the toaster was broken and the quality below average.

The best in ZNZ

Wonderful place. Absolutely great. Aomething unbelieveble for its price. There is no straight exit to the beach, but it wasn't real problem - 5 minutes walking. Service. It was the best in Znz (we were in 4 places). We love it. Really. 10/10. Thank you very much!

Struttura buona, ottima pulizia e colazione abbondante, ma spesso il climatizzatore in camera non funzionava perché la corrente elettrica è scarsa..
