There’s nothing special that warrants the cost. Just a clean bed for the 1st night
Pros:

It is secluded enough for whoever wants that kind of setting. The room is decent but not enough for the cost. The room had a mini fridge but not even water was in it even for the 1st day. The staff are pleasant and helpful

Cons:

Looks like it has seen better days. There were no daily house keeping, in fact we had to ask for toilet paper and towels twice. Bed sheets was changed on day 6. The hotel offers food but the price is about three times of what you would pay at a local restaurant or cook shop meanwhile it’s not even a full course meal and the portions are extremely small. I ordered from them once and had to go to another restaurant right after because we still hungry after paying that ridiculous price and no dessert or drinks came with it. My daughter went in the pool and had a skin reaction on her arms and thigh so it seemed like the pool did not get cleaned.

This is a very small and quiet family run hotel right by the sea. The type of location I enjoy!
Pros:

The local breakfast was as expected.
The small family run hotel requires that you place your breakfast request the night before and your evening meal request after breakfast.
Housekeeping is done on a daily basis!

Cons:

I'm not currently able to identify a dislike

Passable
Pros:

The room was clean and cozy.

Cons:

Unprofessional staff members arguing within earshot of guests. Also, getting access to the property was a problem, the gates took forever to be opened. The meals need to be addressed, not good value for your money. The meals were tasty and attractive, but the serving was way too small.

There was a water pump outside my window, every 30 seconds it makes noise like there is a leak on the line, I could not sleep

We really enjoyed the food, atmosphere, location and the staff.
Pros:

Smiles, Services, employees, cleanliness and food were above average. The food was excellent. We are very particular for the sodium content and every meal was perfect.

Cons:

There was no access to front of the property where the ocean is. The A/C could not flow into the bathroom.
