An absolute gem. The private beach is much nicer than the photos, perfect for snorkelling, the two pools are great and all the amenities kept in great condition. Rooms are spacious and clean. Staff always friendly. It’s probably the best hotel anywhere near this price, fully recommend!

Wonderful city. The old town has great restaurants and shopping. Take Captain Nick’s 3.5 hour boat tour if you can. One of the best experiences. You can find him in the old harbor.
