    Everything about this place is exceptional.. we stayed here for the 3rd time.. season or off season.. it's the same every time.. access to the beach and their inhouse restaurant food is just to vouch for!

    Not impressed with the selection at breakfast so settled with fresh made scrambled eggs every day. Would have liked sourdough bread for toasting. Nice location outdoors but many flies unfortunately. Had to sit on a hardback chair 2 days near the pool because all the sun loungers were reserved by 7.30 am however some towels sat there for several hours with no guests returning. Therefore on day 3, I was forced to go to the beach to get a comfortable seat, not ideal as a solo traveler.

    Wonderful friendly staff especially on reception. Very nice pool area. Great location near to the beach and shops/restaurants etc.

    The telephone calls to remind us what time breakfast finished - we already knew! And the cleaner, who although he was very good at his job and very pleasant, ringing the doorbell habitually to see if we needed anything - even at 8.45am when we were asleep!

    Lovely hotel, quiet location away from the very busy and noisy main road. Pool well kept. Spacious rooms. Attentive staff. Food superb. Service excellen

    Because it's set about 500m off the main roaf there aren't always taxis available so you have to walk up to the main road to find one, which in the daytime is fine, at night it's a bit dark but safe.

    This was our third visit to this hotel, we like it as it is a little peaceful oasis, lovely gardens and pool and only 50 meteres from the beach. The staff are fantastic and can't do enough for you.

    The linen in the room was very tired and a bit thread bare. But clean. Pillows need to be replaced as sweat stained inside.

    The hotel had very nice facilities and grounds with a big quiet pool area. A short walk to the beach but as we were at the end of monsoon swimming was not permitted. Beach shacks closed but starting to open up. Restaurant was good and provided a good range of food Staff very friendly, polite and helpful.
