Great hotel. My room was actually at the Lula property next door. It was a great deal for a jungle room across the street. Nice room with great details. I used La Zebra amenities. The food was pretty good but expensive. Comfortable covered lounges on the beach. I would stay again.

Very well run resort. The staff are amazing. The rooms are nicely sized. The resort is centrally located in town. The restaurant is very good. They keep everything very neat and orderly and clean, including the rooms. Although the hotel lacks a gym and a really nice big pool the beach is incredible and the lower price makes it all very worthwhile.
