    Stunning views from the King Room Sea View, though the outdoor area can get noisy. Consider bike tours nearby for adventure.

    I was absolutely captivated by the breathtaking view from the King Room with Sea View. The breakfast each morning was delightful, with an incredible selection that made waking up so enjoyable. To top it off, the outdoor swimming pool with its stunning ocean vista was the perfect place to relax and unwind.

    communal meals
    terrace stars
    bathroom smell
    missing mirror
    suitcase placement

    Communal meals created a welcoming atmosphere where guests could easily mingle and share experiences. The suite's terrace offered stunning stargazing opportunities, enhancing the overall charm of the stay.

    There was an unpleasant smell coming from the bathroom drains that needs attention. A mirror in the room would really improve the experience, especially when you need to look presentable for events. It would also help to have a clothes horse for luggage rather than putting it on the bed, which felt less than ideal.

    Our stay was amazing! The views from the Queen Room with Garden View were stunning, and the ocean views were ideal for whale watching. We loved the top restaurant quality food served during our stay and the incredibly relaxing atmosphere. William and the staff were so accommodating, making us feel right at home.

    homemade dinner
    outdoor pool
    communal vibe

    William and his team really made our stay memorable with their delicious homemade dinner and cozy atmosphere, along with perfect morning coffee and fresh fruit salad. The outdoor swimming pool and chill garden area were perfect spots to unwind and soak up the sun. I wish the communal vibe was a bit quieter at times, but overall, it was a fantastic experience! 🌞

    breathtaking views
    indulgent pastry
    unpleasant odor
    missing mirror
    lack of luggage support

    The stay featured breathtaking sea views, especially from the King Room with Sea View, making it a visual delight. The indulgent pastry offered in the morning was a nice touch, elevating breakfast. there was a persistent unpleasant odor coming from the bathroom drains, and a mirror in the room would have been practical. a clothes horse for the suitcase would have improved the comfort of our stay.
