Acceptable Stay with Some Issues

The breakfast had a wide range of options. The omelette station prepared omelettes just as I wanted. I used the paddle boat, free for 30 minutes. It was a amazing experience.

Grab drivers found the location very hard to find. The hotel did not change any currency unless it was pristine. the ATM didn't work half the time I was there. The pools seemed very small.

Great Amenities and Convenient Location

The location was very good. I found two restaurants with reasonably priced food, which I appreciated. My room was near the pools. The pools were nice and not far from the beach. Water activities like kayaking are available, and there is also a ping pong table and bikes. Staff were polite and responsive.

The souvenir shop felt a bit miserable. It could use some improvements to better cater to guests.
