Was very pleasant. excellent view.

They were poorly prepared to serve breakfast. We had to wait a while for the staff to source ingredients, but once arrived it was actually not bad. We were pretty hungry at that stage already.

Noisy air-conditioner in the room. Flat pillows. Poor preparation for breakfast.

have been many times and will continue going back

Best value for money your going to find in the area. The location is fantastic

The restaurant was a bit unorganized and extremely slow getting food out. The food was good and the waitress was fine, but the kitchen took 1 hour to get our food out. We were a large group, but I let them know the night before we would have breakfast there. Fortunatley the location is amazing in front of the ocean, so if you are going to wait 1 hour for food, it is not a bad place.

The place is just a step away from the sea, the view is really nice. There is a privet beach and swimming pool. The chalets are small but clean and comfortable.

There was nobody from the staff or management basically from 7 pm until the morning, and the restaurant and bar were also closed. Some guests were listening to music very loudly in the common areas, and at some point was disturbing, yet nobody to speak with. During the night there was no water in the tab. The available parking is outside of the property and is open, not secure. A fridge would be a nice addition to the room.

Great view and adequate accommodations.

The view was spectacular. The room was clean. The service was fine. As referenced in name, good launch point for diving and snorkeling

The room was small and only one electrical outlet that was in bathroom.

Good location with nice garden and perfect sunset ocean view. Good value for the money we paid.

The location was perfect for us. Easy to reach, as it`s direct at the street - but not disturbing noise from it in the complex. Parking right in front, ideal for watching sunsets as well excursion to beautiful Portobello. Small pool, great for a quick cool down. Friendly staff, easy check-in / -out, other restaurant possibility in walking distance. Bar / restaurant is quite basic - nice to have, if you don`t want to walk / drive, but there are better options in quality and price in walking distance.

Things to think about: We booked a chalet and thought, it would be one of the houses that stand alone, like those in the pictures. But they also have the room type in one of the buildings with multiple flats. As we were on ground level, the view while sitting on our terrace wasn`t unobstructed ocean view. Not a big deal, we went down to the chairs in front line to the ocean just 25 meters away - but maybe you could update the pictures or clarify it in the text that "chalet" also could mean an apptm., not a single house. It was not mentioned in the description, so we knew it upfront, but still were missing a possibility to store food in our room cold and a kettle to prepare hot water. Even if you want to sell thru your bar cold or hot drinks - as the time is very limited it`s open, not being able to make a coffee by myself in the morning in my room was bit of a bummer.

Great stay

We loved our stay here! The little bungalow/chalet was perfect for a trio of friends. The pool was nice and the view across the water is lovely. We saw a dolphin and eagle ray from our patio. Great stay!

Lovely restaurant just down the road, everything else requires a taxi.

it was ok but it could be better.

it was close to the water and it had nice views.

the staff where nice but not knowledgeable about anything that we asked. beds where uncomfortable. the cabins needs more attention to cleaning. food was cold at the restaurant so we ended up eating somewhere else.

Reasonably good

This is a nice place yet simple. It is far removed from big towns so you have to set your expectations. The man who runs the front desk / reception is fab. His name is Gi. My room was upstairs and quite pleasant. Comfy bed. No desk, no wardrobe or drawers. There was a small balcony. A/c, ceiling fan, hot water. One of the highlights is the food. Very nice - great cook. More expensive than the city but that is expected here.

A bit dated. Owner needs to spend money on upkeep. For example it was a struggle to get the door lock to work as it is rusted. A bit of oil would help! And the door to my patio was really stiff - same solution!

Best Location for a good price.

The room is simple but has hot water, and ocean view, location is the best, we took our kayak and could paddle in and out, we even went out for dinner kayaking (restaurant in a neighbor hotel).

There was no breakfest, a bit more of space to open/store our stuff would make it more comfortable.

Disappointed

Nice swimming pool with view over the sea. The location allows you to visit nearby beaches with their boats.

We didn’t have any hot water during the entire stay, no one wanted to repair the broken heater of our cabana. The personnel wasn’t helpful and we had to argue all the time because they didn’t take credit card. It is written all over the place “credit card only for security measure” and then they tell you the credit card machine doesn’t work... the only ATM in town charges you 5,5$ and when you insist that you have no cash suddenly they accept credit cards. For the price we paid, you should be given a breakfast and hot water

Relaxed stay and beautiful view

Beautiful views, so nice to sit outside in front of the cabin during the day and in the evening. The cabin is basic, but the price per night is as well. Very comfortable beds and if the shower is cold, just switch it to a different mode. It is like a small village on itself, with a very relaxed atmosphere and very friendly staff!

All my complaints were the same complaints that they've been having for the last 3 years

The view is absolutely awesome

No hot water 2 days in a row ask them to fix it three times or more. When I look back on reviews all my complaints were the same complaints that previous people had in the past 3 years catching closed at 4:00 p.m. no hot water didn't really seem like the staff cared. I'm sure it's a great place to go scuba diving but it's not a great place to stay.
