Great staff. Right on the ocean.
Pros:

Right on the ocean. Great spot for wing foiling. The staff were amazing - Manager Sylidion promptly followed up on everything we talked to him about. Waitress Roda was awesome and looked after us so well. Breakfasts were great and they were really accommodating of our dietary requests - thanks to chef Rosa… and housekeeping legends Maria and Western do a great job keeping the rooms sparkling every day. Super wifi. Backup generator was great for power cuts. Showers were great. Loved the waves crashing at high tide as we slept! Epic sunrises.

Cons:

The team are working on refurbishments and also some plumbing .. which is timely .. didn’t quite look as sharp as the photos .. but saying that we thought it was great value for what we paid. Noisy neighbours at Starfish restaurant have their music up very high at times.

Pros:

La localisation, la vue mer et le personnel au petits soin

Cons:

Les coupure ĂŠlectriques intempestive dĂť au rĂŠseau.
Sur l'hĂ´tel, rien au vu du tarif et de la localisation. 1h15 de la capitale, 30min de la plage oĂš part les observations de dauphins. 1 h du restaurant the rock. 3 min de page et de ses Restos.

Pros:

The staff was very friendly and they did everything for us. The place directly on the beach is amazing for the sunrise 😍 the breakfast was great and a lot.

Cons:

Nobody takes care of the broken curtain rod in our room, and there is no place inside to sit down and a little table would be nice.

Estancia increĂ­ble
Pros:

Íncreible experiencia, el personal súper atento hizo que nuestra experiencia en este hotel fuera impecable. Gracias al recepcionista por su buen trato. Desayunar y despertarse con vistas a la playa ha sido impresionante. La habitación dispone de todas las comodidades, incluido ventilador, aire acondicionado y balcón. El desayuno incluido en el precio estaba ríquisimo y muy completo.

Lovely views but a little noisy
Pros:

The view of the sea is spectacular!

Cons:

There was a lot of noise and light in the room from outside as the windows are not well insulated and the curtains are see through so I would wake up too early every morning.
