Pros:

The restaurant staff was very attentive and polite. The location was great, couldn't be better location. The seafood platter was abundant and delicious.

Cons:

We paid for a quadruple room, they put us in the small room (much cheaper room than what we paid for) There is no hot water, There is only a very cheap small bar of soap in the bathroom, no shampoo or anything (which after swimming in salt water, would be nice to be able to wash our hair. There is a thin bedsheet and that's it, no blankets or covers on top. When you walk into your room, you're greeted with an inventory stating that there are 4 clothes hangers, 2 remote controls, etc etc, as if to warn you don't steal the clothes hangers, haha. Basically it's the same price as the Marriot in Panama City, but the rooms are what you would expect to pay maybe $35 per night for in a bad part of town, not $145 per night.

Un paraíso sobre el mar que supera expectativas 🌊✨
Pros:

Absolutamente todo. La ubicación es simplemente espectacular, literalmente sobre el mar, con unas vistas que no se olvidan. El ambiente es muy especial, tranquilo pero con vida, perfecto para desconectar y disfrutar. El trato del equipo fue increíble, cercano y muy atento en todo momento, te hacen sentir como en casa desde el primer minuto. Las instalaciones están cuidadas y el entorno es un auténtico paraíso. Sin duda, uno de esos sitios a los que quieres volver.

Cons:

Sinceramente, nada relevante. Todo estuvo a la altura o incluso superó las expectativas.

Fuja desse hotel em ruínas.
Pros:

Do atendimento de alguns funcionários.

Cons:

Alto valor por aqui que é oferecido, praia ao lado com cheiro horrível. Café da manhã fraco. E o pior de tudo: fomos cobrados na entrada, normal. Porém meu dinheiro estava dentro da mala, pedi para entrar no quarto para pegar. O recepcionista disse que não, tive que abrir minha mala e retirar metade das roupas em plena recepção. Me senti humilhado. Nesse hotel, nunca mais.

Relaxing, beautiful small island
Pros:

Great stay. Comfortable room. Very relaxed during the week, weekend seems to be more busy with local visitors. Message hotel before arriving. Special parking spot and private boat (3$ per trip). Food is average quality and price is quite high for what you get. Enough restaurants around.

Pros:

Das Frühstück ist sehr gut und die Lage de Hotels ist wunderbar direkt am Strand. Die Überfahrt zur Insel wurde auch sehr gut vom Hotel organisiert.

Cons:

Die Ausstattung der Zimmer ist sehr einfach. Es gibt nur ein kleines Boot für die Überfahrt. Wenn man mit großen Gruppen reist, dauert die Überfahrt daher sehr lange, da das Boot mehrmals fahren muss. Die Unterkunft ist recht teuer.
