Reviews and Ratings
My stay at the hotel was delightful. The room was clean and comfortable, with all the necessary items readily available. While some minor repairs were needed, it didn't diminish my overall comfort. The service was top-notch, with friendly and accommodating staff making my stay effortless. The location was fantastic, right next to the beach, offering easy access after crossing the causeway bridge. However, the dining options were lacking, and the breakfast was meager. Despite these minor setbacks, the hotel provided good value for the money.
The hotel had a beautiful location with direct access to the beach and an amazing poolside ambiance. The rooms were clean and well-stocked, although the inability to control the deck light from inside was a bit inconvenient. The service was friendly and attentive overall, with a minor issue of receiving an abrupt notification to stop smoking and reduce noise late in the evening. The dining options were a bit lacking, but the atmosphere was great for relaxation.
My stay at the hotel was overall pleasant, with a few drawbacks. The rooms were a bit outdated but spacious and clean, located quite a distance from the newer wing of the hotel. The service was very helpful and attentive, although a bit too strict for my liking. The location was convenient for accessing the beach, but the nearby noise from another lodging facility was disruptive. The dining options were limited but sufficient for a quick breakfast. The facilities were decent, but nothing extraordinary.
