I had a decent stay at the hotel overall. The location was perfect for beach lovers, but I encountered issues with the service and the dining experience was quite underwhelming. The rooms had some positives, but the leaking roof was a significant drawback. Overall, it offers good value for money if you prioritize the beach, but be prepared for some shortcomings.

I had a really disappointing experience at this resort. My room, which was supposed to have a sea view, had a water leak from the roof, and the management was not truthful about it. Service was lacking, and the food didn't meet my expectations. While the location is great for beach lovers, everything else needs improvement.
