This location is the most relaxed and laid back place on the island. A beautiful old tree grows there, making it very pleasant because of the shade on a large part of the terrace, which is located on the beach and only a few meters from the water. Truly unique on the island.

This place is not luxurious, but it is perhaps the most beautiful and relaxing place on the island. There is a nice ambience, always shade and a fresh breeze, good food, good music and absolutely friendly and helpful operators. Micki gives good tips and even lends out his bike. Chilling in the bar in the evening is the absolute highlight. I felt completely at home here and can only warmly recommend this place!

This hidden pearl is maybe the most laidback place on the island.Shady, a cool breeze, good food, drinks and music.Micky and Tan and kids welcome you warmhearted, the kitchen is special, by chef Tan.Beautiful bungalows, practicaly on the beach. The other bungalows are much more simple. Don’t expect too much.It’s clean. Micky also plays and arranges livemusic, though not every night. For cannabissmokers; Micky sells good weed, honest prices.Go there, enjoy!

This old resort needs more action from the owners and staff, mostly of the huts are abandoned and destroyed full of trash everywhere, there are just 5/6 huts still going old style basic but ok for 800 with fan. Sadly the beachfront and the garden are full of plastic drift from the high tides but the staff is not cleaning it and the scene is not good. The girl at the reception speaks perfect English and managed to rent us a scooter and to do the tickets for boat bus and train very quickly and kind. Another dude is rolling joints 24./24 instead of keepin clean the place. Next time I would go on the opposite beach that is so much cleaner and nicer even if the huts are more expensive but worthy

It was in ruins...Perhaps because of that, the sea is beautiful.
