4.5 star ratingBrilliant friendly staffAnonymous 02 December 2015
4.5 star ratingExcellent position on an amazing beach, about 5kl long and white sand, although see weed some days but clears quickly. Staff are great,on first name terms after a few days. Service also is excellent, but some days can be a bit patchy. But the good days outweigh these. Food is acceptable.Water sports are also very good, diving in particular. Very good equipment and reliable, run by Swiss husband and wife. Great guides and very knowledgable. Rooms are adequate but in need of a bit of tlc. Same goes to public areas. Laundry is very reasonable and very good, with turnaround in a couple of days. Any problems WILL be sorted. Reception excellent. As is reservations. Not a lot, But bed sheets need looking at, and have seen better days. Coffee machine, and toaster have become the main topic of conversation. Sun beds and in particularly mattresses well are past their sell by date, but adequate.Anonymous 26 November 2015
