"A gem on the beach"

8.0

The staff are very friendly. The chef is excellent, the food was always very delicious. The hotel is right on the beach. An excellent fine white sand beach. Aisha loves karaoke and we had 2 nights of that. One night was a live band. The rooms where we stayed were spacious and very quiet. We had our own pool that was not busy at all.

Our room was a separate location, we took a short walk on the beach. The challenge were the random men hitting on us on the short walk, quite persistently. Breakfast was rather monotonous. The bathroom was very small, not enough room for toiletries The activities seemed rather limited.

"Lovely place, wonderful beach location, great staff."

8.0

A beautiful place on the beach, with very pleasant and professional staff. It's a simple vibe, very chilled, and in a great location for local dive shops. The cocktails are excellent, especially 2-for-1 happy hour, 3-7pm. They have live music most nights but not later than 10pm, while I was there, so not intrusive. The food is really good quality and value, and has a reasonable variety of vegetarian options. Breakfast is unpretentious and excellent quality and quantity; the coffee is particularly good. The staff were all lovely, delivering very good service without fail, and going out of their way to help with particular needs. Special thanks to the manager who helped with my complicated requests to check in and out, around diving plans: she didn't have to be so accommodating but it was extremely helpful - thank you!

Prices in the area in general are quite high, compared to similar accommmodation elsewhere in the world.

"Decent 3 star economy accommodations. Frequented mostly by europeans"

7.0

The breakfast was good and fresh. The staff are attentive and friendly. Jovin who worked the breakfast and bar for drinks was awesome and a really caring person. The location was great at the beautiful beach.

The rustic furniture motif was not very comfortable at all such as pool/beach chairs, dining chairs and room furniture. These items can use an overhaul to make guests more comfortable.

"Nice, but needs a lot more maintenance"

7.0

The hotel was on the beach, the staff was kind and there was fun evening events in the hotel

Maintenance was a bit poor, broken things, no electricity in the bathroom and they didn't fix it, a lot dust and mold everywhere, the bungalow was smelling of rot and mold very badly. It wasn't very secluded.
