Hotel is small but clean, friendly staff. Rooms are ok size. I travelled with my mom , my daughter and my niece . The four of us were comfortable in the small bungalow close to the pool. Rooms have air conditioning although there is no TV. It didn’t matter to us. The little kitchen had a very small gas stove, fridge, sink and had the utensils to cook & eat. It was very practical for cooking breakfast, lunch or dinner. Location is excellent. Right on the heart of Zicatela beach. You literally step out of the hotel, and are right in front of where the big waves are. The surfing spectacle is happening right there. I would definitely go back to the hotel.
Rooms do not have a tv.

The beach is just in front of property (20 meters away)... we could see the beach/ocean from our room!
Jimena was great and helpful, gave us great recommendations for dining and surrounding beaches.
The room was nice and simple, and clean!
Perhaps in future the smaller rooms can have a mini bar to keep drinks cold!
Place is great!

A localização é excelente, em frente à Praia de Zicatela e cercada por bares, restaurantes e comércio. A piscina é um diferencial agradável, especialmente para relaxar após um dia de praia. As acomodações são simples, mas atendem bem à proposta da hospedagem
Não há café da manhã incluído, o que pode fazer falta para quem prefere essa comodidade. Fora isso, não houve nada que comprometesse a estadia

There are lots of places to eat close by, bar, little cafés, it's right on the beach, the pool was nice. Also they had hameck , they had little tables to eat outside each room.
No A/C ,the fan they had was really not blowin enough air to cool. Almost no privacy in the WC 🚽, they just have a hanging door that isn't from floor to roof.
