La ubicación esta a unos 10 minutos caminando, pero te ofrecen transporte gratis hasta la esquina de coron donde comienza el centro. El personal es muy amable. El desayuno escaso. Pero son todos muy atentos. Es muy tranquilo y relajante donde esta ubicado frente a la playa.

Great location with lot's of charachter and a great staff that made all arrangements for us including tours. The location way down the Strand is what made it special, but also a little ways away from town. Their dedicated Tuk Tuk driver was awesome and easy to schedule, which eliminated that problem...

The property needs many updates. Came home from island hopping and water not working. But they corrected it saying it was lime build up. But water softener machines would prevented it. Food was horrible at the hotel. Old steps going to the room. No elevator. No refrigerator or phone in room. The door to the room stopped working and had to be repaired during my stay.

I had read alot of reviews which almost pursued me not to stay here. Yet I tried anyways and Im so happy I did. Although it is dated its a gem of a place. The rooms were very clean, the pool was great and not to mention the views are phenomenal. As far as transport: they def provide transport to the main square. For a small fee they will drop you at your request a bit further. The staff was lovely and very accommodating. Its close to some amazing food spots. Mine was Fuego for the burger and chicken eaters For the athletic there is a gym in the town square. This was a birthday stay and it was an amazing one.

So - I remember booking this reservation mainly because of the property being right on the water and the beautiful pool & hot tub. Man, did it not disappoint!! Especially rm 202, I would soo book that room or ocean front - anytime, because...WOW!! The view as soon as you open the curtains, was breathtaking and I NEVER got tired of the View! The STAFF were soooo Friendly, Informative, Accommodating and just great! They picked us up and even helped me find a parking lot for the Car Rental. (Which is great to have but parking is tough). Great Meals and Breakfast's, and I'm usually not a breakfast person but in Paradise, vacation and the energy of the area, made me want to wake up and start my day early and to have options for Breakfast was Awesome! My gf and I had a great time! Only Suggestion - Making it more able to get to and from the downtown area as the walk to and from can be a bit much after a tiring day of tours and heat and at night. It wasn't bad, about 10 min walk to and from. Yes, most people rent a Motor bike and can go to and from faster, which i would suggest and probably also get next time..but having 2 vehicle rentals was a bit much. But for pickup and drop off with luggage, the staff was VERY accommodating! Overall: I loved it! Beautiful spot, quiet - peaceful but also had just what we needed and beautiful rooms. Definitely book them again!

The views were incredible the staff was outstanding especially Ulli who has the smile of an angel. The rooms were priced very reasonable. The room I had was without a view on the lower level and could use a little updating but it was only used for sleeping so no big deal. The owner is very protective of his guest, by this I mean I had a pickup scheduled and somehow or another there was a delay. The owner drove down to the pickup location on his motorbike and made sure I was taken care of. That was service over and above.
