This place was just like the pictures. There is a little bit of walking to get to the the restaurants and beach but nothing crazy. It is quiet and well lit at night. Pool is a dream, kitchen is available to all visitors but thankfully we did not have much visitors with us so it was perfect the time we went.

Liked: Cleanliness
The rooms were spotless and the cleaning staff were awesome! They were up cleaning the entire place every morning. Very nice, intimate hotel. Only 10 rooms, which made it perfect, not overcrowded. Owner was quick to respond to any messages and concerns. Location was also great...a few minutes to the beach and many restaurants. Would definitely stay here again.
