Hotel muy cercano a la playa.
Pros:

Tienen un buen food Market para escoger diferentes tipos de comida, el área de la piscina y el play para niños está ideal. También te organizan excursiones.

Cons:

Las vistas desde la habitación, poco aisladas del ruido.

Well-located property with amenities on-site
Pros:

Room was clean and had built in shelves for storage. Small patio where it was possible to hang bathing suits to dry. There was one staff member who spoke English well and was particularly helpful for us. Breakfast was included, but not on site. He suggested that we eat at Maracuya instead of their sister property since we had a car. That was a great suggestion as the server at Maracuya was extremely helpful and we were able to get tasty vegan breakfasts during our stay.

It was nice that the property had a pool and bar. Good parking included.

It's located between the main road and the national park. It's possible to walk between them, but we were happy to have a car!

Cons:

This is an unusual property--it's almost like staying above a food court. There are several restaurants downstairs, a bar, and a pool. It occasionally was loud at night--thank goodness for white noise apps!

People not staying at the property would often come to eat or drink so they could use the pool. So, the pool was always crowded with lots of kids.

Pros:

De har flere kjøkken i restaurant området, og de ansatte var veldig hjelpsommme

Cons:

Det ble ikke servert frokost på overnattingsstedet , Enda de har flere kjøkken i restaurantområdet. Vi måtte kjøre rundt til vi fandt frokostrestauranten på andre siden av Hovedvegen. Da vi våknet var det heller ikke vann på badet.

Okay til en enkelt overnatning

Det ligger ovenpå et streetfood sted og restaurant som havde karaoke til meget sent og da der var meget lydt var det ikke nemt at sove
