Cozy and Convenient

I stayed in a Twin Room with Private Bathroom. The room was cute with a lovely living room and separate bedroom. The convenience of the supermarket right downstairs was a huge plus, and I loved being so close to the beach.

Surfing Lessons Galore

I had an amazing experience taking a surf lesson with Nila. She was an really good teacher, which made the whole experience enjoyable and easy to understand. The availability of surf camps was also a fantastic opportunity!

The dormitory I stayed in was very clean and spacious. The AC worked perfectly, which made for a comfortable sleeping environment after a long day of activities. It truly felt like a relaxing retreat.

Functional and Refreshing

The bathroom had all the necessary features and was kept clean during my stay. Even though there were minor smells, it did not detract from my overall positive experience at the camp.

I had a lovely stay at this hotel, where the rooms were both clean and spacious, making my experience quite comfortable. The location is convenient, being close to attractions and the beach. However, I did find the breakfast options lacking, and the pool could have been less crowded. Overall, it offered decent value for money but left some room for improvement.

I had a pretty nice stay at this hotel. The rooms were not only clean but also quite cozy, making for a comfortable experience. Although the staff was very welcoming and helpful, the dining options left a bit to be desired with limited breakfast choices. On the bright side, the amenities were good, and I really enjoyed lounging by the pool. Overall, it felt like a good deal considering the price, but it would’ve been great if the Wi-Fi was complimentary instead of an add-on.

I had a great time at this hotel! The rooms were spotless and quite comfortable, making my stay very pleasant. The staff was really nice and helpful throughout my visit. One minor downside was the breakfast—while it was decent, I wish there were more options available. Overall, the value for money was great, but the Wi-Fi charges felt a bit unnecessary.
