Positive: The location was excellent and included rooftop views of the beach. There were two gorgeous pools as well. The food was excellent. But truly the staff was what made the whole experience. Every one was so kind and lovely and helpful.

Negative: The water in the shower tastes like salt. After speaking with staff, there is a filtration system. But it seems like the whole town deals with getting salt water into the shower water. So we forewarned for your hair!

Summary: It was comfortable and beautiful.

Positive: Really amazing hotel, beautiful, everything very clean and cozy! The vibe is tranquil, the staff super nice! I had a superb time just hanging out by the pool, having their great food!

Negative: It was perfect! If I had to mention one thing it’s that the room in which I stayed is open (which I loved) but it also means you hear a little more. But it’s overall very quiet!

Summary: One of my preferred stays of all time!

Positive: Very nice hotel with a beautiful swimming pool. The room was spacious and you could get delicious food at the restaurant they have.

Negative: The bathroom was a bit inconvenient. The tap reaches a bit over the sink, so the floor and your shoes will get wet. The stream from the shower also wasn't very nice, as there isn't a shower head attached to it. Lastly, the cat from the property would come in our room and ate some of our snacks. But oh well, that's the charm of an open palm roof I guess :)

Positive: Magical place. Very close to the beach. The food was great too. Staff is so friendly and accommodating.

Negative: There was construction for a bit in the morning that was really loud for about 30 min or so. But it was during the wet low tourist season, I assume it’ll be all done by November.

Summary: Fantastic

Travel Purpose: leisure

Positive: Cannot beat these rooms. Extremely clean, spacious and the outdoor shower brought me so much joy. Staff cleaned the room every day. Bath and pool/beach towel provided was awesome too.

Negative: A little bit of a walk to the beach, restaurants and other locations in town. The surrounding area felt very safe but getting back at night alone was extremely dark.

Summary: Perfect relaxing splurge for a backpacker
