We enjoyed our stay at the Navigator. Anderson at the front desk was very pleasant and really helpful. The location was perfect to the beach and restaurants. Rooms are very new and clean. The only glitch was intermittent wifi.

Beautiful modern rooms. Lovely reception and housekeeping staff. Located near a nice quiet beach resort which is only a 3 minute walk. The hotel is located towards the bottom of a hill so it may not be suitable for those who are less mobile or elderly. Nice places to eat out - especially for fresh fish and meat dishes. Would definitely recommend.

Disliked: Amenities, property conditions & facilities
The staff we pretty much non-existent. The maid never left clean towels once during our 3 day stay. Never left any toilet paper either. The hotel gave us a code to to use to open the front door and when we returned after being home all day the code didn’t work and we had to call the emergency number that they didn’t answer and only would text with us. Took them 20 mins to figure it out and let us in. They changed the code and never told us. Would not recommend this hotel. It was rated 10/10 and I don’t know how.
