Coup de cœur +++
Pros:

La chambre donne directement sur la plage et c'est un vrai bonheur. J'ai été époustouflée et émerveillée par la vue.
La chambre est agréable, le lit est confortable et orienté vue mer. La salle de bain est moderne et de qualité.
Il y a des transats et parasols pour profiter pleinement de la plage.
Il y a du personnel 24h/24, ce qui est vraiment très appréciable ; voyageuse solo, je me suis sentie en toute sécurité.
Échange par message très fluide et réponse toujours très rapide.

Cons:

Prix de la chambre un peu élevé et l'offre de restauration est assez cher.
Le bar à côté de l'hôtel a eu une animation jusqu'à 4h du matin (une seule nuit sur les 3).

Pros:

The location for this property is amazing, right on the beach and within walking distance of lots of great bars and restaurants. They even had a tap outside to wash sand off your feet before going into the room. We used the laundry service which was great and reasonably priced. The staff were very helpful and friendly.

Would 100% recommend.

we thought it was quite pricey for what you get, but we just saw it as paying for the location I guess

Right on the beach!
Pros:

We loved staying here. It was so great waking up and walking straight to the ocean for a morning swim. The rooms and bathrooms have been recently renovated and are very clean and looking great. Very comfortable. The welcome juice was also so great after a long drive.

The restaurant also had the best piña coladas of the whole trip! Its also a short walk to all the other restaurants and shopping. We would definitely stay here again.

Cons:

Extra mats for the room or verandah would be great to keep the sand out of the room.

We had an amazing stay and truly felt like island people during our time here. The location is absolutely perfect – you
Pros:

We liked everything

Cons:

It’s not about didn’t like, but would be good to have duvet, as with AC we felt cold at night. And hair dryer also for ladies would be nice.

Cons:

Wer gern am Strand liegt umgeben von Plastikmüll und Müll aller Art, der sollte genau dort Urlaub machen. Eine Schande, dass in der Umgebung dieses Übernachtungshauses so wenig auf Umweltschutz Wert gelegt wird. Da sitzt das Hauspersonal lieber am Smartphone als den Strand zu säubern und vielleicht auch mal neben dem Strandabschnitt des Gästehauses zu schauen. Die Ausstattung des Minizimmers ist sehr moderat. Spiegel und Armaturen waren nicht sauber. Kein Fön oder Kühlschrank vorhanden. Handtuchwechsel bei mehreren Übernachtungen wurde auch nicht durchgeführt.

Pros:

Staff were excellent. Adjoining restaurant/bar was great- crayfish cooked to perfection. Felt very lucky to select this little piece of beachfront paradise. Whilst big resorts line the bays this small boutique establishment was perfect.
