Reviews and Ratings
The hotel has some lovely touches in the rooms like flowers on the bed, but they were a bit dark, and we missed towel service one day. The service was pleasant overall, especially from the beach bar staff. The location is unbeatable with stunning floors, but some areas need maintenance. The dining options were excellent with different themes each evening, but we noticed some concerns about cleanliness and flies. The facilities were satisfactory.
