Ok but not brilliant
Pros:

Location was good and the bed was comfortable and in the beach

Cons:

Bed sheet did not fit the bed, aircon was broken, ceiling fan didn’t operate properly, the main restaurant man was too forceful trying to sell stuff and familiar, house keeping need to keep a lower profile they pounce on you every 5 minutes and thy need to stop sweeping outside the room at 6am

Mold is unacceptable, especially when a room costs around a hundred dollars per night. Torn curtains, the mosquito net,
Pros:

It is located just three meters from a nice, clean beach with its own sunbeds.

Cons:

The air conditioner is extremely noisy, sounding like a jackhammer. I had requested a room with a balcony and a sea view in my booking, but I was given a room without a balcony and only a partial sea view. The room was dirty: there were hairs and debris in the bathroom drain, mold on the showerhead, and the shower door was broken and would not close. The mosquito net was torn, and all the pillows were ripped. Despite my repeated requests to be assigned a room with a sea view and multiple messages to the hotel staff about cleanliness, I was given a room that did not meet my requests, and I was told that a room change was not possible.

Sehr nette Anlage direkt am Strand
Pros:

Das Haus stand direkt am Strand. Sehr nette Anlage.

Cons:

Im Buchungsvertrag stand ein Deluxe Doppelzimmer mit Balkon und Meerblick.
Staat ein Balkon im ersten Stock war nur ein sehr schmaler Zugang zum Zimmer.
Aus dieser Position außen hatte man ein Meerblick, aber aus dem Zimmer nicht, weil das kleine Fenster war undurchsichtig!!!
Das Frühstück war sehr einfach und nicht ausreichend. Für den Zimmerpreis könnte man was besseres erwarten.

Pros:

The stuff really not friendly.
Durty room
We were on the third floor there were non hot water and also the capacity of the water was really small.
Its not a 4 star hotel.
There were ants everywhere.
The roof was broken so during the rain it was raining also in the room.

Все замечательно,вернемся еще
Pros:

У отеля шикарное расположение относительно гулятельной улицы,пляжа и всей инфраструктуры
Есть большой плюс в том,что с одной стороны от отеля большая территория без отелей и кафе,спасательный домик и пальмы…следовательно ничего не мешает наслаждаться рассветом и природой
Перед отелем хорошая пляжная полоса
У большинства отелей по правую сторону от него ,если смотреть на море,пляжа нет вообще
А в этом отеле и левее хороший пляж
Номера чистые,просторные,сочетание светлых стен и темных Пола и потолка…очень нам зашло
Жили на третем этаже
Там мансардные потолки,как на первых двух не знаю
Вид с третьего этажа прекрасен
Касаемо уборки,за нами постоянно ходили и хотели у нас убрать)
Нам каждый день уборка не требуется,поэтому приходилось отказывать доброму человеку в его обязанностях)
Завтраки замечательные,хочешь сок,хочешь фрукты,омлет,яичница
Кофе
Что еще надо для завтрака?

Кстати,мы были уверены что завтрак у нас не входит…но все сотрудники отеля очень переживали что мы не были на завтраке)
Искренне спрашивали почему мы не пришли)

Нам все очень понравилось
И обязательно вернемся!)

Cons:

Во многих отзывах писали что громко орет музыка по ночам
Было один единственный раз
И то до часу ночи
Но беда даже не в музыке,а в салюте после каждых двух песен
Но для тех кто поздно ложится думаю проблем бы не составило

A disappointment! We shall not return nor will we recommend the Villa to friends.
Pros:

We stayed at the Villa on numerous previous occasions and always enjoyed our experience. We love the location on the beach and the proximity of cafes/restaurants.

Cons:

Regrettably on this latest stay at the Villa, we found that overall the standards of service had declined. No service available before 8 AM, dirty dishes left overnight on the main thoroughfare for customers, table uncleared overnight, room not cleaned during our stay, kettle provided but no tea bags/milk or sugar, no mosquito net.

Very good
Cons:

When we arrived they had our booking but had given our room to some else so there was no room for us, we were taken to a sister hotel 10 kms away by taxi and we had to stay there for 2 days. We didnt like the hotel and it wasnt where we wanted to stay. 2 days later we were taken back to the Villa Hotel and enjoyed our stay there

Very good
Pros:

Great location near the beach and many restaurants are available in that area. The bed was very comfortable and the staff were very nice and helpful. The beach can be viewed from outside the room. I wished the room was a bit more clean and to be a bit less noisy, but overall, it was an enjoyable experience, and I would book this hotel again in the future.
