Pros:

Travelling with kids, we honestly could not have chosen a better place to stay!

The cabana is right on the beach, and that made the experience truly special. Early mornings and late evenings felt like we had the entire beach to ourselves — peaceful, quiet, and incredibly beautiful.

We spent so much time just sitting on the balcony, soaking in the views, listening to the sound of the ocean, and simply relaxing. Falling asleep to the waves and waking up to the calm beach and soft morning light was something we’ll always remember.

One of the highlights was spotting turtles on the beach, which was an amazing experience for the kids.

This was truly one of our most memorable beach stays, and we would definitely love to come back again!

Pros:

Главная фишка этого отеля - это, конечно, локация с точки зрения пляжа и наличия бухты, где можно спокойно купаться без волн. Приветливый персонал, ответственный управляющий, тихое, спокойное, уютное, зеленое место с очень аутентичной обстановкой.

Cons:

Ооочень слабый напор воды в душе.
Слабенький wi-fi в номере.
Для такой стоимости номеров, душевую и туалет могли бы мыть как следует, хотя бы перед заселением гостей.

Wspaniałe miejsce, domek tuż przy plaży z cudownym tarasem nad samym oceanem. Gospodarz wraz z pracownikami, drobne problemy rozwiązywali błyskawicznie. Cudowna atmosfera i wspaniali ludzie.
