Pros:

S’était incroyable de accueil jusqu’au logement. La piscine était ouverte 24h sur 24, le restaurant était très bon ainsi que leur petit déjeuner. L’ Hôtel est très bien situé en face de la mer et plein de boutique et restaurants au alentours ainsi que pour louer des scooter électrique ou vélo.
Merci à tout les employés pour leur services et surtout à izane qui a était là du début jusqu’à la fin avec un grand sourire.

Pros:

El desayuno y las vistas

Cons:

Es un centro de buceo, hay muchas actividades y ruido por la mañana. Si vas a descansar como era nuestro caso, quizás no sea el más indicado

Comfortable stay with wonderful hotel staff, but environmental concerns
Pros:

We had a very pleasant stay at Blue Marlin Dive. The room was comfortable, the atmosphere was peaceful, and the swimming pool was a great place to relax. The hotel staff were consistently professional, friendly, and helpful throughout our stay. A special thanks you to Izan, who went above and beyond to make us feel welcome. His kindness and professionalism really stood out. The beach is not exceptional (the east side offers better beaches and are more suitable for snorkelling) but the sunsets at the beach are absolutely beautiful.

Cons:

The breakfast was acceptable but also a bit disappointing. While the food was fine, the portions and options felt quite limited, as if everything was kept as minimal as possible.

As for the diving, it sometimes felt more like a high-volume operation than a personalized experience. My biggest disappointment, however, was seeing the coral repeatedly damaged after the final afternoon dives. At low tide, the small boats appeared to scrape across the reef to reach their moorings, causing visible damage to the coral. For a dive center that depends on a healthy reef ecosystem, I would expect better care. I really hope greater care can be taken to protect this beautiful marine environment.

Overall, we enjoyed our stay thanks to the comfortable accommodation and the wonderful staff, but I believe there is room for improvement, especially regarding environmental protection and the diving operation.

Pros:

Toll Lage direkt am Strand und sehr hilfsbereites Personal.

Cons:

Das Zimmer war nicht sehr sauber und im Badezimmer gab es keine einzige Möglichkeit Handtücher oder ähnliches aufzuhängen. Zudem roch das Wasser aus der Dusche merkwürdig. Das Preis Leistung Verhältnis passt hier definitiv nicht.
