I was really looking forward to my stay, but unfortunately I was disappointed. The hotel overall was very dirty, as was the beach, which was not maintained at all. I even found maggots inside and it smelled unpleasant. The water in the shower was just trickling, there just wasn't enough water coming out for a proper shower. The toilet also didn't work properly because there wasn't enough water available and it didn't flush properly.However, there are also some positive points: The facility is very colorful and unusually designed, which I liked. There are things for children everywhere, which makes the complex very child-friendly. The pool was clean, although it smelled a bit because there is a dirt pool right next to it. The little bungalows are cute and charming, and the sea is not far away. The employees were consistently nice and helpful.However, after just a few hours the problems mentioned bothered us so much that we decided to look for other accommodation. Overall, our stay was unfortunately not satisfactory due to these grievances. The facility has a lot of potential if cleanliness and maintenance are improved.

We stayed two nights in this magnificent bungalow hotel that Toí perfected and painted entirely using his artistic talents. Filled with color and good humor, we had a great time. The staff is adorable and always present, they directly offer us all the services on site (snorkeling tour, boat reservation, taxi, recommendation, etc.) the room is by far my favorite compared to all the ones we have stayed in so far . I recommend ++ and thank you again to Toí and all the staff 🙏🏽❤️

Toí is the boss of the hotel and he is so lovely and helpful. You can ask him for help with any type of request. Boat tour etc. On top of that, he is an artist and he painted his entire hotel in lots of colors, portraits, landscapes, flowers and everything is colorful. It makes the space very pleasant, the rooms are filled with paint too. The beds are comfortable with AC. The restaurant and bar with sea view, beach 5 meters away.We slept there for 2 nights, it was great, I recommend it.

Nice rooms, not so boring white, but nice and colorful and very comfortable.The hotel is located directly on the beach and also has a sufficiently large pool. It's nice and quiet here because it's a small hotel. The staff is so friendly and you are greeted with a very genuine and sweet smile.We feel really comfortable here.

Start staying in January at the end of the month. Accommodation mode: check in with a pool view room priced at 3,000+ if I'm not mistaken. We got a room with a view of the edge of the pool. But 90% of the view is Ganesha. The hotel is decorated in colorful colors and suitable for families. and people who like this style In the bedroom, the colors are quite unusual. For us, it reminded us of motels in movies. There were a lot of mosquitoes. The safe was difficult to use and damaged. The bathroom doesn't flush well and the shower zone drains very slowly. Overall, there are a lot of damaged items waiting to be repaired. And the room at this point was not peaceful, very noisy and chaotic. After staying one night, it was agreed that we would check out and stay at another hotel, throwing away the money we paid because we didn't sleep all night. But sometime in the afternoon I saw that the beachfront room should be checked out. So I went in to ask for a room upgrade. Pay the difference from the original increase to 4,000++ per night. The room is in front of the beach, the view is beautiful and very good. During the day, you can get just enough shade from the trees. Got a pool corner room like before. And the noise is as loud as ever. But there were no people crowded like the old room. The disadvantage is that during the day it is very hot. The air conditioner does not work well during the day until dusk. Around 8 p.m. it will slowly get colder. Until the dawn of time, it will be so cold that it will freeze. Very rubbery blanket Suitable for rooms with fans rather than air conditioners. The good thing about the front zone room is that the bathroom is separated from the shower. Safe is difficult to use as usual. And the pipe has a strong smell like an old room. But the ventilation is better than the old room.The good thing is that it is suitable for families with a lot of children. The disadvantage is that there is no proper control over the timing of vowel use and loudness. Loud and chaotic late at night, which is not suitable for people who like peace and relaxation.The bed is quite hard. Anyone who has neck, shoulder, or back problems, do not recommend this blanket. Very thin blankets.The manager works very enthusiastically and tries his best to help. I really appreciate it. Overall we think it's not worth the price paid per night. Facilities are not complete. And many repairs were lacking, most importantly, the housekeeper forgot to clean the room. Plus there is no parking. You must park along buildings, curbs, or grass. This is not recommended for people who drive. Do not recommend couples or people who want peace and quiet. The more you have a happy face, do not recommend because the price is not worth the stay. But recommended for families with children because it is a resort that is really made for children. The exterior decoration is fun to look at. Suitable for childrenThe location is very good. But I'm disappointed that I didn't answer the full rate of the thief. And the price during the stay is considered high according to the condition of the room and the amenities received. I'd like to completely renovate it because the style is quite cute and suitable for families with many children.
