試過兩天早上四五點在陽台垂釣，到要趕著外出觀光，沒有多少收穫。
Pros:

我和朋友住113和115號房間，應該是觀景最好的，每天潮汐漲退，日出日落和深夜都有不同氛圍，遺憾住了三晚都是密雲或下雨，不然的話因為周邊都沒有光污染，應該可以看到星辰。

Cons:

地點偏遠，設備陳舊，用餐不方便，但價錢親民，老闆親力親為，服務用心。

Pros:

La vista del cuarto que escogimos era maravillosa, el personal nos espero aunque llegamos tarde por el vuelo casi 1 am y nos facilitaron el proceso del check in al llegar.

Cons:

Algunos detalles de la habitación por descuido. Podrían cambiar pequeños detalles que necesitan atención y se vería aún mejor y eso sí, todo queda a distancia a la que se necesita si o si tomar un grab

Excellent for a retreat.
Pros:

It was a good sized room with a comfortable bed and an excellent relaxing view. There was plenty of water in the shower and the wifi signal was good. It is close to supermarkets but there are very few places to eat nearby.

Cons:

The attached restaurant is overpriced and the only option when the local cafe is closed.

Mitten in der Natur gelegen
Pros:

Die Unterkunft ist wirklich sehr schön und ruhig gelegen, auf Holzstelzen gebaut, in den Mangroven. Es gibt ein gutes Restaurant direkt daneben.
Wir hatten einen schönen großen Balkon mit Blick auf die Mangroven.

Cons:

Leider ist alles ziemlich runtergekommen und müsste dringend renoviert werden. Die Türe vom Bad fiel uns schon entgegen. Das Bett war für mich viel zu hart.Aufgrund der Bilder, dachten wir, wir hätten Aussicht aufs Wasser, war dann aber nur der Mangrovensumpf.

Pros:

The bed is comfortable. The staff are very friendly and helpful.

Cons:

There is damage on the floor, the bathroom door does not have a lock, and the balcony sliding door is difficult to lock properly. It feels a bit pricey for a one-night stay considering the room’s condition.
