    We had a very nice stay. The staff was very helpful (snorkelling tour, finding the speed boat). We were very close to the sea without the noise and everything and the place was very quiet. The accommodations were very nice. We loved our stay and would come back there with great pleasure.

    it is a far walk to the port, or you need to pay 100IDR to take a horse and cart

    Breakfast was great, could choose off their menu and it was made quickly and brought to you on the beach they decorated the room for our honeymoon. the staff were so nice and friendly . the location is a bit far from the hustle and bustle but that's what we wanted

    The only things we didn’t like were that we had to ask ourselves if we needed fresh towels, bed sheets, or to refill the water bottle—they didn’t do it automatically. But once we asked, they always responded quickly and took care of it right away. Also, the breakfast was quite small with only a few options to choose from.

    A clean and wonderful beachfront hotel—we truly enjoyed our stay! The chairs, tables, and daybeds on the beach for guests to use were a great touch. The staff were polite and friendly, and the price of the hotel was very reasonable.

    Rats in our room. Staff came in with a broom to pretend to away but they come back and are activate at night!! Accused of not paying our bill as we paid at cashier and not to the person who took our order. Little English so hard to be understood but we are in their country!

    Location 10 minutes to the pier so away from the noise!

    Very spacious air-conditioned rooms. Very clean. The location is amazing, across the little road to the beach where you can easily spot turtles. The staff are amazing and helpful. Their restaurant is good. Try the mixed seafood curry.it is so good.

    The breakfast options were a bit limited and portion itself wasn't too large.

    We liked the location to the beach and harbour which can be both reached on foot. The additional advantage is the AC as well as a comfortable bed.

    Was a little noisy at night but it's in no fault the hotel's just the usual party goers coming back late after midnight.

    Great location just by the beach! Rooms were comfortable and spacious and had basic amenities.

    Breakfast was a letdown. I have stayed in other places for the same price that were able to provide fresh fruit juice, real coffee & fruit. What was available was well cooked & tasty. Can't really complain, because I was on my own I was able to have 2 breakfasts, which I thought was very fair.

    Large stylish standalone bungalow with private outdoor seating & garden. Aircon, fridge & wifi all worked well. Liked the refillable glass water bottle & the wall of glass windows looking into the garden, tinted so you couldn't see in. The enormous bed was comfortable & had a top sheet which was a bonus. The staff were friendly & happy to help with any problems. I thought it was very good value.

    Breakfast could be bigger, they could add some fruits and bed was not so comfortable.

    Very well located, right on the beach, not noisy, nice staff, clean, breakfast at the beach, you can rent a bicycle for 50K/day and the turtle spot is very close.

    The wifi was terrible. I had no internet in my room during my whole stay. They need to change the modem router or something. I understand its a tropical island but other places had good wifi. The bathroom was filthy. They need to change the toilet seat, trash bin etc. it was so dirty you get disgusted. The breakfast is nothing special.

    Location The staff was friendly You have access to the beach and there is sea turtles everywhere You can rent a bike with them 50k / day The AC was good.
