    beach views
    clean eco bungalow
    loud nights
    unexpected charges
    lack of air conditioning

    Stunning beach views were complemented by a clean Eco Bungalow that I enjoyed during my stay. The breakfast selection included an excellent variety of fresh fruit juices and cooked options, providing a delightful start to each day. However, the lack of air conditioning in my bungalow made evenings a bit uncomfortable due to outside noise from nearby bars. Additionally, I found the government tax charge surprising and felt it could have been more transparent. Despite these issues, the friendly staff made the experience worthwhile.

    An enchanting retreat! The stunning beach views, attentive staff, and vibrant breakfast spread made my stay unforgettable.

A true beach paradise that left me wanting more!

    The beach hut we stayed in had an amazing ocean view and was super clean. Definitely recommend checking out the local eateries nearby.

    Felt like family, nothing to complain about.

    ocean view
    clean beach hut
    friendly staff
    overpriced food
    poor air conditioning
    uncovered food

    I spent 5 nights in the Eco Bungalow Sea View. The ocean view was breathtaking. The beach huts are spotlessly clean, adding to the overall charm. I appreciated the morning housekeeping and nighttime turn down service. The staff were quite friendly and offered assistance whenever needed, like when my husband cut his foot on a rock. Breakfast had a good variety, with eggs cooked to order, but the uncovered food led to flies buzzing around. The location deserves a nod for its proximity to local eateries and activities. Sadly, the air conditioning didn't meet expectations, barely cooling the room. The restroom had some leakage issues, resulting in stains on the flooring. The Wi-Fi was inconsistent, making it difficult to stay connected. Noise from nearby events during the night could also be distracting. Some amenities felt outdated, like the old safe and basic toiletries. Overall, the stunning beach view and friendly staff made my stay enjoyable, despite areas needing improvement.

    spotless bungalow
    stunning views
    beautiful pool
    lack of air conditioning

    The Eco Bungalow we stayed in was spotless and offered stunning views of the beach. We loved relaxing by the beautiful pool and enjoying the lovely garden area, both perfect for unwinding. The only hiccup was the absence of air conditioning, but the powerful fan made it manageable. I’d recommend bringing some snacks for the beach! 🌴

    eco bungalow
    friendly staff
    superb food
    limited activities

    We had a fantastic family getaway here! The eco bungalow was right on the beach, and the pool was a hit with the kids. The friendly staff made our stay even better, and the food was superb, especially the local dishes. Exploring the nearby historical sites was a bonus. It truly felt like a paradise!

    In my kids' opinion, there should be more fun activities for families at the hotel.

    Significant improvements needed in restroom cleanliness!!! Stains and leak issues in bungalows detract from the experience!!! Staff conduct and check-in chaos require management attention for a smoother arrival process!!!

    A Hidden Gem with Spectacular Views!

    Our stay in the Eco Bungalow Sea View was unforgettable! Waking up to the sound of waves was magical. We loved dining at local spots nearby, especially the grilled octopus! For a great experience, be sure to check out the beach huts early in the morning.
