Super schönes kleines Hotel in toller Lage
Pros:

Die Lage ist super, leider kann man dort am Strand nicht baden, aber der Strand ist trotzdem sehr schön. Das Hotel hat eine tolle Stimmung. In der Nähe gibt es ein tolles Strandrestaurant wo man den Sonnenuntergang genießen kann. Und hat der Aufenthalt sehr gefallen. Die Kinder haben sich sehr über den Pool gefreut.

Next to a loud main road & no hot water
Pros:

Close to the beach

Cons:

Next to the main road with transport trucks passing through all night. No hot water on my second night. Broken patio door and closed with a piece of metal tubing. Broken shower door so water sprayed everywhere. $200 a night.
