Pros:

Personale estremamente gentile e disponibile, siamo rimaste davvero colpite per la loro cura verso il cliente a qualunque ora del giorno e della notte. Colazione molto variegata e buonissima. Per quanto riguarda l alloggio avevamo il primo bungalow vista mare, molto bello come da foto. Non c è da aspettarsi una cura della struttura però per il prezzo pagato assolutamente valido! Per quanto riguarda il rumore avevamo dei vicini un po’ chiassosi ma non è colpa della struttura, ma solo della incivilita dell uomo soprattutto in vacanza!

Pros:

We stayed in the home pod room. Which was a clean, basic room that had all ameneties we needed. Excellent value for the price paid. Beach front hotel with well maintained grounds and a lovely pool. Quiet hotel but on the main road and close to all of aruam bays restaurants etc would definatley stay again.

Pros:

We really enjoyed our time at PodBay, we used the pool lots and the sun loungers. It is right on the beach so if you want a swim in the waves you can just walk out to them or stay by the pool. Our cabin was lovely and the air con worked really well. We were looking for somewhere to relax for a few days and it was perfect. The staff were helpful and friendly too.
