Delicious Culinary Experience

During my stay, I had the pleasure of dining at the inner restaurant by the pool. The food was absolutely exquisite! I thoroughly enjoyed a variety of meals, from well-prepared seafood to good pasta dishes. Each meal was delicious and fulfilling, making breakfast one of my favorite parts of the day. The dining experience here truly elevated my vacation!

Comfortable Room with Great Amenities

My room was well-equipped with a kettle for tea/coffee, a modern AC unit, and a spacious bathroom that featured a big standing shower. I appreciated the attention to detail—the room was cleaned daily, and I even found Insect repellent was applied after cleaning. The rustic charm of the room added to its character, making my stay cozy and comfortable.
