Great place to stay with family and friends it’s pet friendly , the staff is very kind and helpful , room was small but clean, the pool is nice , the sea view it’s amazing, we will comeback
The property has been stripped down. There's no fridge or kitchen area, as shiwn in the pics. This is important. My wife and I both have medication that needs to be jept cool.
The beds are completely unsuitable for couples. There's NO blankets. Pillows are small, mattresses are small. The approach to the property is a very rudimentary 2-Track that WILL damage a vehicle if extreme care isn't exercised.

Bad service staff they try charge more stuff on the bill
Las habitaciones necesitan mejorar, la propiedad es agradable y la playa excelente pero una vez llegamos no nos facilitaron el ingreso e incluso cuestionaron cuanto nos costó la habitación alegando que no tenían habitaciones del precio que reservamos y nos quisieron enviar a otro lugar. El cuarto que nos dieron inicialmente estaba sucio y se metía el agua de lluvia causando que se mojara el piso y fuera peligroso. Tuvimos que pagar extra para tener otro cuarto sin esos problemas y con baño propio. El desayuno fue más simbólico que útil. Podrían mejorar la infraestructura de las habitaciones y la calidad de locina aunque suba el precio.
Muy bonito el lugar, y los cuartos muy limpios ordenados, a la orilla de la playa

La vista de la propiedad es increíble. Los empleados fueron muy respetuosos y siempre ala orden con cualquier pregunta. Los de seguridad una señora no me acuerdo el nombre pero fue muy amable. La calle para entrar si necesita un poquito más de cariño. Nos encantó nuestra estadía.
La habitación no tenía ni un tan solo toma corriente y el que había era con una extensión con cables pelados qué venía de la planta de abajo, aparte que el único empleado del lugar se va temprano por la tarde y el lugar queda sin personal que atienda por cualquier inconveniente. Aparte la televisión qué hay en los cuartos es de pura fachada porque ni siquiera tienen control remoto ni mucho menos cable. Además no hay servicio de restaurante así que uno debe llevar su propia comida. Lastima el lugar porque es muy agradable y la playita espectacular
Hermoso la playa y la piscina, pero los cuartos no son para nada bonitos y pequeños. No tienen colchones las camas solo son esponjas, las camas son incómodas. El baño es sucio y compartido. Todo está oxidado. Las condicionales del hotel deben de ser mejoradas. Es un precioso lugar, soñado.
