Reviews and Ratings
The hotel offers rooms with a kind of Motel 6 island vibe, decorated with above-average taste. The rooms were okay but slightly dark and had a damp smell. The service was incredibly helpful and lovely, with superb lagoon views available. The location is amazing with a bar and restaurant overlooking the pool and ocean. The dining experience, although offering tasty dishes, seemed weak considering the $27 per person cost. The facilities are well-maintained, providing a comfortable and enjoyable stay overall.
The hotel offers uniquely decorated bungalows with an above-average taste that create a cozy atmosphere. While the rooms were decent, they felt a bit dark and had a slight damp smell. The location on the island is exceptional, providing a perfect retreat for exploring around.
