Great Location!
Nice place! Big comfy and clean rooms. Shower wasn't that good but the bathroom was spacious and clean. NO BREAKFAST AVAILABLE! Despite the breakfast menu being in the room. Bring your own instant coffee as a boiler is in room. The pool is small and good for kids.

This was a great stay - property is basic but great value for the money. You get on-beach access and it doesn't get better than that. Rooms had a comfy bed, working air con, decent wifi and very helpful staff. For what we paid, it was great value. Don't expect up-market resort facilities, but the price is also not up-market. I would happily stay here again

Shouldn’t be listed in hotels.com
We didn’t stay because the place didn’t feel safe, we paid for two nights but we lost our money because we didn’t feel safe. Is a very low profile place, not to be listed in Hotels.com

Like: near the beach, shopping n restaurants
Unlike: average shower facility, poor TV reception, no room phone to contact staff, does not accept credit cards.
But then again, for the money what can one expect?

This would be the worst stay I have had in many years. I don’t like to leave bad reviews but I think I need to warn others not to stay here. We stayed in room one which is right next to the bar so all day and half the night all you can hear is the TVs and music playing. It is so loud, don’t expect any sleep.
The bathroom has cockaroachs and mould on roof. When it rains the bathroom leaks. Shower has mostly cold water and the shower head is a dribble at best.
The bed is good, air con works well. Small fridge works well.
No blackout curtains so lights comes through during the night.
Pool looks good but didn’t use it. They go scuba diving lessons in it also.
Obviously there is a bar like four steps from the door so if your after that this would be a bonus.
I couldn’t wait to leave this hotel, it is run down and not enjoyable to stay here.

The place is right on the beach at the less busy end of the beach. The food is fantastic. Staff is great. It's more like a beach house setting then a fancy hotel setting and thats exactly what I wanted! The price was half what the fancier hotel's charged and worth every cent! The room had a Kitchen and we cooked. One of the best experiences in my 40 days in the islands!

Cozy little place that makes for a pleasant stay on the beach. Staff was great, with good food and drink. A few steps to the beach. Lot of expats visit so there’s always a familiar face.
Really enjoy my stay there.
