I had a mixed experience at this hotel. The location is truly great, with several beaches just a half-hour away and right next to a national park. The room was quite spacious with a very large bed, but I found the service lacking a bit. Although the dining had a fantastic view, the options were limited. Overall, I felt it was decent value for money, but there are definitely areas for improvement.

I had a mixed experience at the hotel. While the location is perfect for beach lovers and nearby restaurants, and the staff was helpful after encountering some issues, the overall level of service left something to be desired. The rooms were comfortable but lacked air conditioning, which made for some uncomfortable nights. Overall, it’s a decent place, but improvements could definitely elevate the experience.

The initial impression of the service was lackluster, as it felt like they didn't care much about us. However, once I contacted the duty manager, he was incredibly helpful and managed to find us alternative dining arrangements.

I recently stayed at this hotel and found it to be in a decent location, not far from several beaches. The rooms were quite comfortable, especially the super king-size bed, but I did face some issues with cleanliness regarding towels. The service wasn’t ideal either since I had to leave due to noise despite a helpful duty manager who assisted with dining options. Overall, it was okay but could definitely use improvements.
