Equalia boutique hotel

The location is just perfect, right next to the beach (literally down the stairs) and also close to many restaurants in the area. The staff was really helpful and there was room service daily. The tours they offer are also really nice and with reasonable price. The rooms have a fan that works just fine, and also it has a mosquito net in its windows. The WiFi also worked correctly most of the time.

We booked a room with balcony and sea view. The problem is that the hotel has two floors, and both of them have this type of rooms. However, the two rooms with “sea view” in the lower floor are actually rooms with a balcony connected to the bar/restaurant, which actually covers pretty much all the sea view. Also, the price for this room is the same as the ones on the upper floor, which are totally incomparable as the views from the upper floor balcony are astonishing (the true sea view, also most of the pictures of this room on Booking are actually from the upper floor). Also the rooms from the lower floor had poorer ventilation and therefore smelled a bit more. So in case you are interested in booking this type of room you either should request it beforehand or once there if you weren’t lucky request a room change (as we did, also mention that the staff was really kind and helped us to do so). For these reasons I think that they shouldn’t have the same price. As a last point I would like to also mention that the breakfast could be somewhat better. A bit slow once requested and also you are not allowed to have more than what they usually give.

Electricity

Location was good

We arrived at 4:00 and even though checking starts at 2:00 we were only able to check in at 5:00. We booked a twin room and got given a double room. They could not change it till the second night, no appology was offered. Breakfast was poor and only instant coffee offered. Rooms in the back are next to a local bar that is noisy until late. Would def not recommend or stay again.

Breakfast was excellent, very delicious. The setting perfect. Wish I could have my breakfast every day overlooking the ocean and watching the sun rise. The colours of the sea spectacular. The beds and bedding all very comfortable.

Sometimes the showers were a little short on water but as we come from Kenya we know the problems you have with water 🫤

The location on the beach was magnificent.

Breakfast was very one sided and there are not much facilities around, tax airporti service is overpriced and so is the food

The hotel is really small, in an area where you don't eprct hotels. But really special how close to the see it is. The staff were exceptional

The road there was horrible. The hotel is small so it does not suits big groups, but ideal for solo travellers or couple looking for something special.
