"Wish we could stay longer. We were only there for one evening. We arrived later in the evening and just grabbed our keys in front of the office, which was closed. Not an issue - there was a provided phone/whatsapp number for the staff who picked up right away and was on-site anyways. Loved the new renovations, including the new heating/lighting in the bathroom - welcome features as we visited during winter. Short ~10 min walk to the nearby restaurants, and down the street from the beach. Would stay again."
