Pros:

Très bon séjour dans cet hôtel. La nourriture était de bonne qualité, variée et agréable au quotidien. L’ambiance générale est sympathique et détendue, ce qui rend le séjour encore plus plaisant. Un grand merci à Esther, la manager, pour sa compréhension et son écoute — elle a su être disponible et attentive, ce qui fait vraiment la différence. Je recommande.

Perfect for comfortable and lazy vacation.
Pros:

Spacious and comfortable rooms, nice pool area and dinner on the beach were the main reasons I came back to Toa for the second time.

Cons:

Small things could be improved, more variety of food for vegetarians, for example. The beach was slightly more disappointing compared to last time, but the hotel cannot do much about it.

Perfect picturesque paradise location…can’t wait to visit again
Pros:

The hotel was set in such a beautiful location, we stayed in a suite with a hot tub overlooking the beach. Watched the sunrise, the tide come in and out.
The staff were amazing! Ester the front desk manager was phenomenal, Prince, Tausy and the rest of the team was amazing also.

Thanks so much team

Cons:

Would be great if they could invest in some deterrent for the flies in the restaurant area

Piękne miejsce, wspaniały pobyt
Pros:

Wyjątkowo udany pobyt, dość kameralny i bardzo czysty hotel, ładne pokoje, wspaniała obsługa, pyszne jedzenie, doskonałe masaże, bardzo wygodne baseny, wszystko świetnej jakości i w dobrej cenie. Zdecydowałam się na pobyt all inclusive i bardzo polecam to rozwiązanie.

Cons:

Podobało mi się wszystko, jedynie niepokojąca jest rozbudowa hotelu, co grozi utratą kameralności, ale dzięki niskim budynkom nie ma wrażenia molochu hotelowego.

Ces vacances ont été une belle surprise pour ma femme.
Pros:

La salle de sport était petite et le tapis de course ne fonctionnait pas bien.

Cons:

La seule chose que je n'ai pas aimée, c'est que je ne pouvais pas me baigner dans la mer tout le temps, car l'eau se retirait puis revenait après le déjeuner.

Pros:

Everyone was friendly
The rooms stay clean

Cons:

I didn't like the watery drinks, the low tides of the beach water, the pool is in front of where you eat but is beautiful at night. I didn't like being an hour away from other places.
