I had a truly wonderful stay at this hotel, especially with the surprise upgrade to a honeymoon suite that was beautifully decorated. The lobby and rooms are exquisite; however, I felt the breakfast options could use some improvement. The location offers breathtaking ocean views, and the restaurant staff were exceptionally helpful and attentive.

The hotel has spacious and clean rooms with beautiful sea views, making it a great place to relax. The staff provided excellent hospitality, especially the reception team. However, the location is a bit remote, requiring travel for amenities, and the dining options, particularly for breakfast, were quite limited. Additionally, the internet service was unreliable, which may be a drawback for business travelers.
Rooms

The rooms are spacious, well-furnished, and clean, with some offering lovely sea views from the windows. However, some outside areas need maintenance, such as the rusted iron on balconies.

The service was satisfactory, with the staff kindly accommodating requests, but overall it felt fair and could be improved especially with attention to detail.

The hotel is situated about 15-20 minutes outside the main town, so you should expect to travel for restaurants and attractions. It's pleasant for those wanting a quieter stay but inconvenient for exploring nearby areas.

This resort has a beautiful view and a lovely swimming pool that was perfect after long days exploring. However, I had some significant privacy issues with housekeepers entering unannounced, and the noise from the road could be quite disruptive. Overall, it's a decent place, but it falls short in several areas that could really enhance the stay.
Rooms

I had an incredible stay at this resort! The rooms were spacious and air-conditioned, providing a comfortable retreat after a day by the pool. The staff were exceptionally responsive and friendly, making me feel right at home. The dining options offered stunning views and a great variety, though I think breakfast could use a little more diversity. The pool area was just as beautiful as the pictures. Overall, it was a fantastic experience, and I wholeheartedly recommend this place for anyone looking to unwind by the sea.

I had an amazing time at this hotel! The restaurant on the fifth floor offers gorgeous ocean views and the food was absolutely delicious, especially the grilled changu fish and seafood platter. The staff were wonderful, eager to assist, making my stay truly enjoyable. However, I noticed that some areas in the room could use a bit of maintenance, particularly the balcony railings. Overall, I can't wait to return for another relaxing stay.
