This property is awesome! Brigette runs an amazing outlet. My family loved the location, the indoor games, the swimming pool and private beach. The staff at the reception are very friendly and welcoming especially Lindelani. The hotel is spotlessly clean and very comfortable.

One of our rooms were amazing. Very bright with an amazing view of the sea. The other was dark, had an old wasps nest on the balcony which had just been left there. It over looked the road and was a little bit smelly.

Management should take great caution given the prevailing climate conditions and the :self catering nature of the hotel"
