    gorgeous infinity pool
    dolphin sightings

    Highly recommended for couples seeking a retreat

    I had a fantastic time at this hotel. Each breakfast was served overlooking the gorgeous infinity pool, and I even spotted dolphins playing in the waves, which was lovely.

    Sure, it wasn’t exactly inexpensive but totally worth it.

    beautiful beaches
    great service
    delicious breakfasts
    dinner reservation mix-up

    Had an incredible stay with friends! We spent our days enjoying the beautiful beaches, trying surfing and kayaking. We also took an unforgettable guided tour at the Cango Wildlife Ranch, seeing over 90 animal species. The hotel had great service, delicious breakfasts, and stunning views that made our stay extra special.

    The only downside was a mix-up with our dinner reservations at the seafood restaurant, which made us wait longer than expected.

    The breakfast was a culinary delight, especially loved the make-your-own pancake machine! Added to that was the stunning ocean view from the restaurant and the warm pool on the terrace to soak in the scenery. The staff were incredibly accommodating, making our stay feel truly special.

    ocean view
    infinity pool
    breathtaking breakfast
    mixed service

    The views from the rooms are exceptional, especially if you're lucky enough to catch sight of dolphins or even a whale right off the headland. The infinity pool setting is perfect for soaking in the scenery, and dining outside while enjoying breakfast with a breathtaking view adds a special touch.

    The restaurant experience fluctuates quite a bit. expect disorganization during busy times, with orders getting mixed up or forgotten altogether. The gym leaves a lot to be desired, offering only basic equipment, and the staff's handling of breakfast can feel like a game of chance rather than a reliable service, which might not sit well with everyone. Plus, the location at the bottom of a steep hill means driving is essential for accessing the town, and navigating after dark isn’t recommended.

    breathtaking views
    easy access

    great views and easy access to nearby parks and beaches

    the breathtaking view from the restaurant, paired with the short walk to Central Beach, made my stay truly memorable during my city explorations. The warm pool was a perfect spot for soaking in the sunset after a long day. the room was clean but a bit noisy in the mornings with staff arriving early.
