Wonderful Stay in Paradise!

wonderful balconybeautiful restaurantfresh towelsfire show

My room had a wonderful balcony and a good bathroom. The premises includes a fantastic pool and a beautiful restaurant with ocean view. I was happy with the daily room service and fresh towels, it was very much appreciated. I enjoyed having many activities some days, like a fire show.

I found that the absence of nearby shops was slightly inconvenient because I had to plan my shopping trips.

The hotel is right by the beach and provides astonishing beach views. It was easy to take a tuk-tuk to town from the hotel, I liked this. The hotel felt safe, that was important.
