We had an amazing escape as a family! The booking process was simple, and our request for adjacent villas was fulfilled. The kids loved the private pool, and the villas were clean and comfortable. The only downside was that we didn’t try the breakfast, but the self-BBQ in a cozy ambiance was enjoyable. I’m definitely looking forward to our next visit!

I had an amazing experience at this resort, which is nestled away from the hustle and bustle. The beachfront villa we stayed in offered a breathtaking view of the ocean, and I truly enjoyed the peaceful ambiance. The only downsides were the sporadic Wi-Fi availability and the presence of stray dogs around the property, which was slightly unsettling. Overall, it’s a perfect escape for relaxation and soaking in nature's beauty.
