The hotel is a mixed bag - the rooms had a musty smell and were quite noisy, but the service was friendly and quick to resolve issues. The location, right on the beach in a gated community, is great for relaxing, but the dining options were lacking. The facilities were basic but functional.

If you're seeking a peaceful and idyllic retreat away from the hustle and bustle, this hotel is perfect. The rooms are spacious and traditional, offering a view of the ocean that serenades you to sleep with the gentle lull of the waves. While the service is friendly, there were some organizational issues during check-in and check-out. The location, right on the beach, is ideal for relaxation but lacks nearby dining options. The dining experience was generally pleasant, although slightly overpriced. Facilities offer the essential amenities for a comfortable stay.

The hotel is situated perfectly for a tranquil getaway right by the sea. However, it's a bit remote, requiring a bit of a walk to reach dining and shopping options. The security measures in place add to the safety but limit late-night outings.

The facilities met the necessary requirements for a comfortable stay, although the lack of amenities like a tap filter for chilled water was noted. Overall, the setting provides a peaceful ambiance for guests to unwind.
