Pros:

Bel emplacement
Villa spacieuse

Cons:

Attention nous avons réservé une villa avec vue sur l’océan et le réceptionniste a essayé de nous affecter une chambre avec un bâtiment à bateau en guise de vue
Le personnel n’est pas à la hauteur à chaque demande vous attendrez
Le soir il y a de la musique très forte pendant le repas
Pas beaucoup de chose à faire ne pas rester trop longtemps
