The pool was huge and beautiful lounging area! Staff are both friendly and helpful! Stayed for a whole week and would definitely come back! Amazing view of the ocean even when swimming in the pool! Cleaning staff were nice and very diligent. You get morning breakfast as well which was a bonus for us. Would recommend! They even generously upgraded our stay! Lovely hotel! Shoutout Caroline for everything!!

The host staff were really great. They made everybody’s experience much better with local recommendations and just getting all of the surf camp participants doing fun group things together. The yoga twice a week and the group activities make this much more than just booking a hotel.

2/10 Terrible

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
I was so disappointed at our stay. From the moment we arrived no one was there to check us in. The room that I reserved was occupied. We literally walked in and there were people’s luggage still there. They too us to another room and then said no, that was reserved for a couple. They took us to surf house to a room with tiny twin size beds. The room smelled so bad of sewage. You could tell they sprayed something to cover the smell. No fridge, no tv no full length mirror. We were told there was a bar and no one was there. Asked for extra towels no one ever came to bring them. The breakfast was mediocre. On Sunday we didn’t even have breakfast because there was nothing besides chia pudding and fruit. No one ever came to clean. O and to top it off no water from 9am to 1pm on Sunday. The pool was dirty no maintenance at all. No staff cleaning or helping. I was planning on recommending this place but I tell people to stay away!
