Perfect location if you’re doing an early dolphin or albatross tour—literally right across the street, so you can just walk over in minutes. Super convenient and stress-free for early starts. Great choice if wildlife tours are your priority.

Loved the stay here

Arrived late at night in the middle of a storm and was given really clear, easy to follow instructions on how to find and access the room after hours. Was welcomed to a warm room that was beautiful & spacious, bed was super comfy, and in the morning opened the curtains to a stunning view of the beach and the ocean - loved the stay here!
