It could not get any better. Run by owner, a true professional but also great likeable person. An impeccable place, all thought through. Felt like at home, but you also have your own space any minute you need. The food at the restaurant was super delicious - as the Chef said: prepared with love. Super supportive with me needing to get around and wiht some last minute laundry. If there was the option of 11 points, I would have to give them. Stayed only for one night - wish I had stayed longer.

Amazing location, right in front of a perfect, almost private beach. You don’t need to leave the hotel for anything, unless you want to visit other beaches, but we stayed most of the trip there. Very friendly staff, always smiling and welcoming! The food is delicious and for a fair price, we tried almost every meal in the menu. There are snorkel equipment and kayaks available for free use. There’s nothing very special about the room, but the view is breathtaking. This hotel was highly recommended by our friends and we do recommend it to everyone.

The apartment had a lot of space, fresh towels and Nev was an amazing host. Watched some old dvd-s which was fun. The best thing was that it was just 200m from the lagoon beach!
