Our stay at this resort was lovely and offered some wonderful moments, especially enjoying the beachfront and the beautiful surroundings. However, the bungalows showed signs of wear and could use some upgrades. The dining experience was a standout, but the service at breakfast needs more attention to detail. Overall, we felt the value was there, and we appreciated the friendly vibe.

My stay was a mixed bag. The location was lovely, right along the beach with a serene atmosphere, and the bungalows were rustic yet clean. The dining was enjoyable with many options, but I felt the prices were a bit high compared to the overall experience. The staff were absolutely amazing, making my time there feel welcoming, but the facilities really need an update, as some areas seemed neglected.
