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.

We would stay here again.

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.
