Perfect place for our budget. We were in the lowest price range of this accommodation and definitely we highly recommend the resort for any budget,look other cabins there are different choices,we choose the cheapest one and still were happy. Restaurant and bar had tasty meals too. Safe, clean and super friendly staff has everything that you need. Thanks to everyone that made our stay so easy.

Rooms have been updated beautifully since last stay. We checked in late and left early, so just needed a bed and didn't get to enjoy all the facilities

“Nice Resort with great Amenities and awesome Location!”
the kids enjoyed the upstairs loft where they slept. Spacious Bathroom and large walk-in shower. The kitchen has everything you need. the Decor was bright and fresh - adding to the sea resort vibe. Enjoyed the convenience of walking to the restaurant for dinner and walking to the beach from our property. Kids felt super safe walking around by themselves.
