As it says on the tin, literally right by the beautiful beach. The rooms were good, clean and of a good size. The staff were so helpful. Wi-fi wasn’t great, but we knew that beforehand. Definitely recommend

The room was big, comfy with great air-conditioning. Tucked away in the quiet garden but 1 minutes from the beach. The beach front was lovley, chill and the puppies super cute.

Fantastic stay! The staff were super friendly and went out of their way to help me with everything I needed. The location is perfect—just a few steps from the beach—and the price is very reasonable for what you get. Highly recommended!
