"Stunning property and the pool was excellent. The location is very nice kind of towards more high-end part of town, but easily walkable right to the central part of town as well. Everyone that worked there was very kind and courteous, and our room was nice and clean."
"Beautiful property with clean spacious rooms. The included breakfast had a great variety and the coffee machine made awesome drinks. The location was close to popular beaches.
The only hiccup was the tv.. nothing worked.. not even regular tv. Thankfully we weren't there to relax and watch tv but i could see it being annoying if you like to watch tv before going to bed."
"As soon as we arrived we were greeted by a lovely staff member. She provided us with a map, restaurant recommendations and booked a reservation for us. She then proceeded to help us with our luggage. The view from our room was gorgeous. We forgot to book breakfast for the next morning but the staff was very accommodating and made it happen anyways. Street parking was not a problem and the beach, shops and restaurants were a five minute walk. We felt very safe walking to and from our hotel
