Perfect stay in paradise
Pros:

Great location slightly away from the main town in front of a beautiful quiet beach perfect for snorkelling. A very chilled place, comfortable , easy to walk to everything. The staff in both the hotel and the attached restaurant in front are all really nice and helpful. I extended my stay many times, it was hard to leave.

Het was er heerlijk, goed en fijn personeel, behulpzaam!!
Pros:

Het was een leuk huisje , leuke ligging, mooie tuin, sfeervol, lekker ontbijt, leuk terras aan zee!
Aanrader!!

Cons:

De verlichting was minimaal, geen leeslamp bij de bedden, er was maar één centrale lamp. Ook buiten was er slechte verlichting, het licht schijnt naar boven. In plaats van naar beneden waardoor je ook geen boek kan lezen. De deuren sloten niet en deur kon niet op slot. Beide makkelijk op te lossen.

Pros:

Great location right across from the beach but away from the harbour. Comfortable poolside bungalow that was cleaned every morning. Great cafe with a good breakfast. Mini fridge and lots of water. Hot water in the shower. Frendly family of cats

Cons:

Make sure to take a pony cart there as it's a bit far to walk with luggage.

Pros:

The location is on the beach, with breakfast included. The accommodations were basic, with everything we needed. The pool was down the path, and a very enjoyable, lovely setting with many shady trees around the complex, making it a very comfortable place to relax.
The staff were very helpful and relaxed, renting push bikes and electric scooters for us.
All in all a very enjoyable stay, and I can highly recommend it to other travelers.
Thanks from Mark and Lila.

Pros:

L’emplacement est top! Au pieds de la plage avec les tortues!
Nous étions dans la chambre familiale, mal insonorisée et en plus travaux toute la journée dans la chambre d’à côté donc ça casse un peu le côté « havre de paix »… (mais les autres chambres sont mieux insonorisées !)
sinon c’est cosy on s’y sent bien - attention à l’entretien de la piscine qui mériterait d’être un peu plus régulier..

Cheap restaurant right out the front
Located right next to turtle snorkeling
