What really sets this place apart is the incredibly kind and attentive staff — everyone we met was warm, helpful, and genuinely caring. The manager was especially thoughtful and engaged, making sure everything ran smoothly and that guests felt truly looked after. The hotel also has a fantastic beachside bar and restaurant just a short stroll away — perfect for enjoying a meal or drink with a view of the ocean and your feet in the sand. The food was absolutely delicious — the tuna tartare, in particular, was unforgettable!

The location and view of the ocean from our balcony plus also being able to watch and listen to village life. The room was very spacious, clean and good value. Staff were very friendly and service was great. Breakfast was excellent and plentiful with fresh juice, fruits, bread, eggs and coffee. There are a few good restaurants very close by as well such as Peter pan and Yellow Card and a couple of convenience stores for water and snacks.

This place is an absolute paradise! The fact that hotel is small, clean and full of people who really enjoys their work makes you feel like home. Alex was not only very helpful but also so kind and he always smiles to us! We felt there not like customers but rather like a part of family. Food is really tasty and the view there is incredible too! Everything was perfect.

Our room was very clean, there is a common kitchen and fridge for the guests to use. We did not have air con but in this season you do not need it; we did not use even the fan during the night. The place is very quiet, just a short walk from the beach and the village. Breakfast was included and very tasty (chapati, eggs, guacamole, fruit). Wi FI is available. Very good value for the money 😊

She welcomes guests and works for their comfort. I cannot find the words to describe my feelings. It is a more than wonderful place, and this will definitely make me come back to it again.

They explain us in every morning what we had at the breakfast and trust me,the breakfast it’s absolutely delicious and enough also me 😄 The rooms it was cleaned every day after we going in the trips what we had. If you want to coming here be sure everything will be very nice 👍🏼 very tidy and very safety. At the ending,they prepared a surprise in the room for us.
