Reviews and Ratings
I had a mixed experience at the hotel. The rooms were quite dark and unclean, but they did have some useful amenities like USB charging and a large luggage rack. The service was excellent with accommodating and pleasant staff, though there were occasional struggles in the absence of the manager. The location was superb, overlooking the Indian Ocean and providing a peaceful beachside setting. Dining options were decent but lacked variety at times. Overall, a place with potential but needing improvement in cleanliness and room quality.
My stay at the hotel was a mix of positives and negatives. The rooms were unclean and unprepared, with dead insects in the room, but they were spacious enough for 15-20 people. Unfortunately, the rooms were still full of trash, used glasses, and empty bottles of beer and vodka upon arrival. The service, however, stood out as the staff were very friendly and helpful. The location was wonderful, rustling in the Monsoon winds and overlooking the Indian Ocean, offering a top-notch experience. The dining experience was decent, though some days felt like leftovers from the previous day. Despite these aspects, the facilities were excellent, adding some value to the overall stay.
I had a mixed experience at the hotel. The room I stayed in was far from the beach but had a nice view of the small private pool, although it was not inviting for a swim. The service was friendly and helpful, which made my stay enjoyable. The location was nice and peaceful, right by the beach, but the dining options were a bit repetitive. The facilities were adequate overall.
Staying at the hotel was a mix of positives and negatives. Despite being far from the beach and overlooking a less-than-inviting private pool, the rooms were comfortable and clean. On the flip side, the location was stunning, right on the beautiful beach, but dealing mainly with one staff member could have its drawbacks.
Even though the rooms felt a bit dark with closed windows, and were somewhat 'tired,' they were still spacious and impeccably clean. The friendly service added to the relaxing atmosphere of the hotel, making it a pleasant stay. The location, overlooking the Indian Ocean, was superb, offering a perfect beachside escape just a 15-minute drive from the airport. The dining experience under the swaying palms provided fresh choices, though it was just okay. The facilities were decent overall, contributing to a comfortable stay.
I stayed at a lovely hotel overlooking the sea, but my cottage was far from the beach with a disappointing private pool full of algae and debris. The room had everything I needed, including convenient USB charging ports and ample storage space.
I had a mixed experience at the hotel. The rooms were equipped with everything we needed, but mine was one of the cottages far from the beach, overlooking an uninviting green pool full of algae and debris. Despite the friendly staff, the upkeep of the room was subpar, but the service coped admirably in the absence of necessary amenities. The location was superb, with a picturesque view of the Indian Ocean and beautiful beach. The dining options were decent but could use some improvement. The facilities were lacking in cleanliness and maintenance.
I had a mixed experience at the hotel. My room was far from the beach and overlooked a disappointing pool full of algae, but the sunrise swim was unforgettable. The cottage itself was comfortable and perfect for a large group. The service from Said was charming and friendly, although the location was stunning but lacked maintenance. The dining options were decent, but some dishes felt stale. Overall, a stay with both good and not-so-good moments.
I loved the hotel's prime beachside location with a stunning view of the Indian Ocean. The rooms were comfortable and clean, but the lack of natural light made them feel a bit dark. The service was exceptional with friendly and accommodating staff. The dining experience was decent, although some dishes seemed repetitive. The facilities were well-maintained and offered everything needed for a pleasant stay.
