It's in a very layback small hotel. Just in front of a secluded beach... It had great internet, even reach the beach lounger. Simple but very filling breakfast. Also one extra good point checking is 1.30pm so perfect after check out from previous destination. This is manage by a very friendly family. If you are looking for a calm relax oasis this is for you. If you're looking for a place with a lot of people to serve you and in the middle of action is not. We just wanted to rest after very active previous days and this was perfect, truly enjoy it!!

The owner of this resort treats everyone like her family. My kids and I loved our stay as we felt taken care of and tended to. The facilities were beautiful and the private beach was exquisite. We loved the food and entire dining experience. We also loved the rescue animals roaming the property. We hope to go back and stay again!!

This was my favorite hotel of the trip. I loved everything about it! The hostess has a flair for sparing no attention to detail. The vibe is wonderful and so is the food. The room was clean and comfortable. Across the street is a beautiful secluded beach. I will stay here again!
