It was a peaceful stay, my own personal studio room. The staff were very tentative, and checked in to see if I needed anything, via text. The beach was close, stores were near and tranquility was everywhere. I plan oncoming back soon

This was a nice place to stay. Rooms were nice, not too far from the beach and about 10 min walk to shops, food etc. If I'm ever down that way, I will most definitely book again! 👍
