Loved the intimacy, the bar on the beach and the fact that it is a SMALL RESORT. Staff were really friendly and helpful. Renovations might have dampened the experience a bit.

Hotel was closed for renovations and they didn’t inform us before we arrived. We had to look for an alternative place to stay at night and Expedia was not helpful either with finding another hotel. I would never recommend this place because of the lack of communication and inconvenience caused!

Lorsque nous sommes arrivés il y avait plus de place pour nous dans l’hôtel nous avons donc été transférés dans un autre hôtel à plus d’1h de route !! Et quand nous sommes arrivés dans l’autre hôtel nous avons attendu plus d’1h afin d’avoir les clefs nous avons donc eu les clefs à 6h du matin !!! De plus nous avions réservé une chambre avec vue sur mer et l’autre hôtel n’avait plus de chambres avec vue sur mer pour nous !!!

Total verdreckter Strand, Dreckiger Pool, Klimaanlage hat nicht funktioniert, Viele Speisen und Getränke waren in der Bar nicht vorrätig. Personal extrem langsam. Der einzige, der sich bemühte, war der Hoteldirektor. Max 1. Sterne Anlage, leider total veraltet

Die Economyzimmer sind ohne Kleiderschrank etwas gewöhnungsbedürftig. Das Essen ist gut bis sehr gut. Positiv ist auch dass es 3 Mal die Woche einen vom Hotel organisierten, kostenfreien Boottransfer zum gegenüberliegenden Strand (Kae) gibt. Dieser ist wunderschön

Great pool, but not a great beach

Our family stayed here 3 nights. The pool was great and so was the bar. It is a very secluded, small resort. It would take quite a while, and a driver, to go eat away from the resort. They have various meal packages which include, or don't include drinks. The beach is not swimmable, and not very sightly due to the amount of seaweed. But, if you look beyond the beach to the water and horizon, it's beautiful. They offer a boat ride Mon, Wed, and Fri to another beach to swim. The restaurant is outdoors, but covered. Rooms have individual AC units. We spent most of our time at the pool, or relaxing in a hammock.

Struttura molto carina , accogliente. e pulita. il personale e molto gentile e premuroso. Il bar è sulla terrazza sulla baia ed è molto piacevole soggiornarvi.Il cibo è buono e si può mangiare a buffet o a la carte ,per la colazione , c'è un buffet buono ma non tutti i giorni ugualmente ricco.Nel complesso io e mio figlio ci siamo trovati molto bene anche per la professionalità del personale che ci ha aiutato ad organizzare le escursioni.

Nous avons aimé : la gentillesse du personnel ; les buffets du soir et ceux du vendredi spécialement (spécialités africaines) ; le calme et la tranquillité ; bon réseau wifi ; propreté des chambres (insecticide tous les soirs par les femmes de ménage) ; Nous n’avons pas aimé : les gens qui réservent les transats avec leurs serviette et qui ne sont pas la journée ; eau minérale non comprise dans la demi-pension ; vente de crème solaire inefficace (brûlure) ; accès à la plage ok mais plage quasi-impraticable.
