Reviewer Type: Extended Group
Travel Purpose: leisure
Positive: Our stay at the hotel had both positive and negative aspects that we would like to share: Positive points: The rooms were clean and well-maintained. The pool was cleaned daily, which we appreciated. If you're looking to relax and unwind, the atmosphere can be very pleasant during quieter times.
Negative: Areas for improvement: - The staff seemed disorganized at times and automatically added a 10% service charge to every bill, which felt presumptuous. - Breakfast was disappointing: heavily focused on fried food, with fresh fruit but no vegetables or healthier options. - English communication was a challenge. Most staff did not speak English well, if at all. - During weddings, parts of the beach are closed off to hotel guests, and the music played extremely loudly, making it hard to relax. - Food service was very slow — we typically waited at least 30–40 minutes for our meals. - On weekends, large groups of guests behaved as if they had exclusive use of the hotel, making the atmosphere less enjoyable for others. - Dining options are limited to the hotel, with a strong focus on fish and generally high prices that don't match the quality — especially compared to prices in the rest of the country. Overall, while the hotel offers a clean and relaxing environment, especially during weekdays, there are several operational and service-related aspects that could be improved to enhance the guest experience.
