We wasted our money staying here and ended up booking another hotel every day.

Terrible stay experience! The power supply is extremely unstable here. The air conditioner hardly works every day at all. The shower water pressure is extremely low with only a tiny stream, making it impossible to take a normal shower. There are ants all over the room, and the room is very dark with poor lighting. It’s totally unlivable. We had no choice but to book another hotel to stay every day. A huge waste of money and very disappointing. Absolutely not recommended!

Great if you don’t need wifi

This place is really nice and has a great pool and overall it’s beautiful. Rooms were comfy and the hot showers after diving is a big plus. The restaurant though a bit overpriced for what you get - not the best food here.

Very disappointing stay. Our room had a strong smell of humidity and visible stains on the walls and ceiling. One of the windows didn’t close properly, which made us feel unsafe with our belongings. The water pressure was extremely low — my wife couldn’t even wash her hair. We informed the staff, but nothing was done to fix these issues. Definitely not worth the price.

A small oasis close to everything! A pool area for relaxing after a day in the waves, a bar and restaurant to quench your thirst and fill your stomach. We had excellent dives and service, couldn’t have asked for a better place to stay and dive with!

The service at the front desk was very poor, and the staff showed an unhelpful attitude.

The breakfast was okay, but the room was very disappointing. The only exception was the waiter who served us during breakfast he was tall, had white-colored hair, and was very accommodating and friendly. Unfortunately, aside from him, the rest of the service staff provided very poor service. The floor smelled strongly of urine, the bed was broken, and the mattress was extremely flat it really needs to be replaced. When we checked in, there was a blackout because the resort’s fuse had blown. The power went out at 10:00 p.m. and only came back at 4:00 a.m. We couldn’t sleep because it was very hot. We also felt unsafe since the windows were broken and the locksets were damaged. Because of this experience, we will not be returning to this resort, and I will advise my friends to try other resorts instead.
