Loved the stay

I had a great time here, Nicola and the staff were super helpful with finding things to do on days when it was too windy for my comfort level, and on days when the wind was perfect they had staff to help rent launch and catch kites. During my stay there we're a couple people to socialize with and the teras had some incredible views for sunset. Food menu changes every once in a while so there is a good assortment of food.

Nice place, a bit older, but clean. close to ocean, but a bit of a walk to get there. Big climb to get to rooms, ok if you are not physically hampered. Close to some decent dining if you have a car. Food at property was average. Great value for dollars. Rooms very small and bank of 5 rooms share a small patio space. Nice common space below at front office. Many staff were volunteers from other countries learning to Kite Surf, they were all very friendly.

Lower your expectations

The hotel is well located, you have access to really nice beaches all around. And the staff was polite and friendly and resourceful. The negatives is that the listing is misleading saying you are booking an apartment with three bedrooms when you are really booking a private room in a shared space, which for the price is fine I guess. But the “apartment” was in poor conditions, kitchen and bathrooms weren’t very clean, towels seemed old and dirty. The bed in the room was small and uncomfortable for two people. The room consisted of the bed only, there were no benches, chairs, hooks, nothing for your personal belongings. And you hear all the noise from outside, you hear the traffic, people’s conversations down in the lobby/restaurant, the neighbors next door. So just beware of the situation.
