The hotel offers amenities for your comfortable stay and unforgettable experiences

Gorgeous Sunset Views

I absolutely loved having breakfast at the hotel, as the location of the restaurant provided amazing views of the ocean. Every morning felt special while I indulged in breakfast with good views, and I even spent evenings there to soak in the sunset. The experience was peaceful and nice.

Comfortable and Cozy

I stayed in one of the ocean view rooms, and it was serene and comfortable. The peacefulness in the evenings, with only the sound of the waves and birds chirping, made for a perfect getaway. I appreciated having a fridge and air-conditioning, which added to my comfort during the stay.

Basic Necessities Covered

While the bathroom was basic, it was kept clean throughout my stay. I also appreciated that towels and sheets were changed daily, which enhanced my overall comfort. Though the water pressure could have been better, I found everything I needed for a pleasant experience.

Perfect for Relaxation

The ambiance around the hotel was truly relaxing. I could enjoy quiet evenings on my patio while listening to the sound of the ocean. It was a nice way to unwind after exploring during the day. I highly recommend it for those looking to relax and enjoy nature.
