We loved this hotel, which was recently refurbished. The staff were exceptionally kind and accommodating and were able to make excellent vegetarian food available to us. The room was spacious with a wonderful terrace overlooking the ocean, which is just a few yards away. There is also a lovely pool. Despite being a horrible person I was completely unable to find fault.

Wir waren sehr zufrieden mit der Anlage, den Zimmer, der Ausstattung und das Personal. Das Zimmer entspricht den Bildern und ist sehr gemütlich eingerichtet. Das Meer direkt am Hotel war leider nicht so schön und zum Baden weniger geeinigt aber dafür kann das Hotel nichts. Das Essen war sehr lecker und immer Abwechslungsreich. Viele Vegetarische Optionen und das Fleisch ist Helal. Das Personal hat sich immer bemüht und hatten immer ein Lächeln. Wir wurden oft von Babu bedient, der immer sein bestes gegeben hat! Wir haben uns sehr wohl gefühlt. Ich würde das Hotel weiterempfehlen.

Séjour super les chambres sont très confortables et modernes ! Hôtel proche des commodités ainsi que d’un arrêt de bus. Le bar propose d’excellents cocktails et le restaurant offre une nourriture variée et de qualité. Juste dommage, la plage à cette période de l’année n’est pas très belle à cause des algues.

Struttura decadente, cibo terribile, però gentili

Appena si arriva si è ben colpiti dall'ingresso pulito e curato. Buona accoglienza e check-in. Camera con bagno terribile e desueto. La prima sera, purtroppo, abbiamo mangiato lì. Veramente terribile la qualità e la varietà. Purtroppo la stessa cosa al mattino: abbiamo preferito fare colazione fuori. Struttura che avrebbe delle buone potenzialità, ma andrebbe ristrutturata in toto.

Viihtyisä ja persoonallinen

Hyvin hoidettuun putarhaan sijoitettu kahdeksan taloa, joissa kaikissa oma rauha ja näkymä merelle. Huoneet sekä terassit tilavia ja persoonallisesti sisutettuja. Säilytystilaa oli ruhtinaallisesti. Erittäin siistiä niin kuin koko saarikin. Ruokapaikkojen vähäisyys hieman harmitti.

Resort molto confortevole. Ottimo il cibo.

l'hotel è dotato di ogni comfort con camere spaziose e molto bene arredate. L'ambiente e l'atmosfera complessiva è molto piacevole. Staff disponibile e gentile. La nota più positiva è l'eccellente cucina, variegata e di ottima qualità. L 'unica nota negativa è la spiaggia, pressoché impraticabile soprattutto per le alghe. Tuttavia, se si dispone di mezzo di trasporto per visitare l'isola, è una struttura davvero consigliabile
