The hotel offers amenities for your comfortable stay and unforgettable experiences

Delicious Dining Experience

The buffet offered a selection that, while simple, was incredibly fresh and well-seasoned, with a nice variety to satisfy all tastes. I particularly enjoyed the themed dinners, especially the one set up on the beach with vibrant entertainment and dances to enjoy while eating. It was a lovely experience to eat while listening to live music with the ocean breeze around us.

Stunning Room Features

I stayed in a spacious King Size room that was very comfortable. The nightly preparation of the mosquito net added a special touch to the experience. The views from my room overlooking lush vegetation and the ocean were simply amazing and added to the tranquility of my stay.

Relaxing Poolside Vibes

The pool area was fantastic and had a beautiful view of the ocean. It was huge by hotel standards and was perfect for lounging when the tide was low. I enjoyed relaxing by the pool, taking in the serene environment with a cocktail from the bar. The ambiance was calming and rejuvenating.

Comfortable and Cozy Bedroom

The bedroom was absolutely good with clean, spacious accommodations that had all the necessary features for a pleasant stay. The King Size bed provided wonderful comfort, ensuring I had a restful night's sleep. The decor gave it a warm feel which made it feel like a home away from home.

My stay at the resort was overall a mixed experience. The ocean views and infinity pool were absolutely stunning, providing a beautiful backdrop for relaxation. The private bungalows offered a spacious feel, but the cleanliness left something to be desired. The location was quite remote, making it a bit challenging to access amenities outside the resort. Dining options were limited and could use improvement, while the service provided by the staff was attentive and helpful.
