This was a fantastic place to stay. The staff were lovely and the hotel facilities and good were top notch. The Tuk Tuk driver, Kodak, they recommended became a core part of our trip. Recommended.

The property is an ideal spot for people who don’t want to be in the busiest spot but also not far away from other amenities.

This is my second time staying here. The rooms and hotel in general is very clean. I would rate it 5 stars but when it comes to eating outside, it’s very difficult because of the amount of flies.

It was a great place to stay at. Perfect views and attentive staff. I would give this place a 5 star. However, our booking for changed when we arrived. We wanted a cottage (we had 2 kids and booked a cottage) but instead got 2 separate rooms. While this looks in the face value as an upgrade, it was to the detriment of our family union and stay together. Other than that, it was a great place to stay and I'd stay here again!

Very nice place and extremely comfortable. The pool and the beach views are amazing, and the breakfast was simply the best. 😍😍 The entire staff was incredibly friendly and helpful, especially the gentleman at the front desk, who went above and beyond to make us feel welcome. We truly felt pampered throughout our stay.
