Amazing customer service - over and above!!!

This hotel is just awesome!! The staff especially were so friendly and helpful!!! Room 202 with the balcony view is incredible and those rooms are amazing for sunrise views with lovely little well thought about balconies! It’s a cute little hotel with gorgeous views, the staff let us pick the room that we wanted when we asked. One of the guys at reception literally answered all of our questions even when they were unrelated to his service or even the island! He looked up tour companies for us on other islands as we were short on time! The customer service was really impressive and this hotel ensured that our stay started off on the best possible note! Thank you so much for all your hard work and well done!

Belle chambre belle vue

Très grande chambre face à la mer. Nous sommes arrivés après 21h , le restaurant devait être fermé, ils se sont démenés pour nous chercher des pizzas. Il y a une petite crique pour pouvoir se baigner en mer (échelle pas très facile pour remonter) et une piscine d’eau de mer. Super expérience en octobre, saison creuse pour ici.

Lá frustration

C’est une colonie de vacances pour la capitale. Piscine publique payante, avec repas de baptêmes noces les week-ends . Vous-vous trouvez loin de tout sans autre choix, dans une chambre qui ressemblerait plutôt à des dortoirs. Bon courage

Es stimmt, dass die Unterkunft schon ein wenig in die Jahre gekommen ist. Aber alles ist sauber und das Personal ist freundlich und hilfsbereit. Das Frühstück bietet eine große Auswahl, aber es wird tatsächlich nichts nachgelegt. Man sollte also pünktlich erscheinen. Der Pool hat uns besonders gut gefallen. Er wird täglich mit frischem Meerwasser befüllt. Uns hat der Aufenthalt dort gut gefallen, auch wenn das eine oder andere verbesserungswürdig ist.

Séjour convenable. Grande hôtel avec beaucoup du personnels, mais ils ne font pas grand chose car. Pas de client bizarre. Grande chambre avec un lit très dur, et le moteur de la climatisation bruyant. Petite salle de bain, pas de gel douche, mais beaucoup de petits cafards a cause de la planche en bois dans la douche.
