10/10 Excellent
"Although we didn’t get the chance to fully explore the area because of the rain, the location and the view were absolutely perfect. The view from the property was spectacular, especially with the yachts—it made the stay feel so peaceful and beautiful. ❤️ The staff were also incredibly friendly, nice, accommodating, and helpful, especially with our luggage. We really appreciated how welcoming and attentive everyone was throughout our short stay. We only stayed for one night as we were traveling to another destination, but we’re so glad we chose this place. Even with the rainy weather, we were still able to appreciate the beautiful surroundings and enjoy the relaxing atmosphere. Definitely a place we’d love to visit again, hopefully on a sunny day so we can explore more! 🌊⛵️✨"
