The location was ideal, close to the beach and shops. The staff were helpful and the pool area was well-maintained, perfect for relaxing after a long day.

The King room was cozy, and I really loved the outdoor pool and relaxing garden area—it was perfect for unwinding after a long day. It did get a bit noisy at night, but it didn’t ruin my overall experience! I’d definitely recommend bringing your own towels just in case they take a while to be refreshed. 🌴

Families need to pay attention
Friendly staff always made sure we had fresh towels when we needed them.
It wasn't inexpensive but still reasonable for what we got.

I enjoyed the pool area and found it perfect for hanging out. I also appreciated the proximity to a restaurant with great food, making it convenient for meals. However, I had to deal with a moldy smell in the room, which was a real problem during my stay. As someone who loves road trips through the U.S. , this was a letdown.

Perfect for Families!
We had such a nice time! The room was spacious, big enough for our family of four, and the beds were super comfy. I loved the picnic area outside where we could chill and eat. One bummer was that the shower could've used some updates. But overall, a solid spot!
