Can't wait for next visit

Hubby and I enjoyed our stay - great service and people are so very helpful. Not a typical hotel - the standard rooms do not have AC, but they do have cross winds once you open the windows and sliding doors, if this is not enough, turn on the fan. Showers a slow draining but nice hot water, so just adjust how much water comes out and you should be fine. The food was good. We also discovered it was pet friendly. Walking distance to town but no shade so be prepared.

Chose this property based on the wonderful reviews. Honestly, this is a motel. Yes, the grounds are beautiful and the staff is nice but the rooms are outdated, AC barely works (actually broke down in the middle of the night), pool had a muddy water color and old half broker plastic lounges. Bathrooms are extremely outdated and scary looking. There is no view at this property. I was counting minutes to get out from there.

Generally the hotel is not in very good condition. A little run down. Gardens are not well kept, disrepair details in rooms. Swimming pool and other areas with paint scraped off. Beach chairs around swimming pool in bad shape. Generally the pool area is not inviting. Seems the hotel has seen better days, probably due to struggles during pandemics. We were expecting more given the many stellar reviews. Dining area is Ok and breakfast was good.
