Really beautiful view from the room, staff were welcoming and gave us a treat as it was our honeymoon which was really lovely. Small things but it wasn't accessible with bags all all you had to go up and down multiple flights of stairs and there wasn't any laundry service, the one in town being rated as appalling.

Cozy room but…

Great room that was clean and comfy. The bed was cozy and the bathroom was clean and large. Had a small fridge in room (no freezer) and a coffee machine where you could get extra pods at the front desk. For ice you ask the front desk or go to a liquor store up the street. My only meh was that it was very hot and humid and there is no AC or dehumidifier (there is one but it heats the room). You need to open the sliding door and hope the curtain keeps the mosquitoes out (we ended up having to light a citronella candle since the mosquitoes still came and ate my legs)

Beautiful property - the views can not be beat. Staff were great and location is walking distance to everything Try to get room on top floor as the sound really carries- we could hear walking from the people above us. There are 2 single family A frame cottages for rent as well and are situated between the hotel rooms and the water so all the balconies face them and the last 2 nights we were there they were rented for a family reunion so lots of visitors coming by throughout day and eve so took away some of the quietude but not sure how often that occurs as the first 3 nights it was just a single familiy in each no extra visitors so much quieter.

PRO: Great view, short walk to town, modern decor, good bed, good shower. CONS: No facilities or services, small deep gravel parking lot, long breezeway catwalks and outside staircases, small rooms, sticky doors, no desk or table, no microwave, no space around bath sink for toileteries, paper thin walls and ceilings, no A/C but next to sea, so not really needed, barrels for night tables, designed for looks rather than practicality. Beware of swag lamps next to bed. Not for seniors or persons with mobility issues. More for the younger back packing crowd. Too rustic for our taste. Would never stay there again.

Overall, a great experience. Not having electricity the first night (11:30pm-5:30am), though, was challenging for my elderly parent who relies on a CPAP machine for sleep. Nothing was offered for the inconvenience, which was disappointing. A discounted night would have been appreciated.
