28 Apr 2026

The staff were amazing. They were always checking on me to make sure that I'm doing ok. The room was huge, much bigger than what I was expecting. I had an entire patio for myself with a hot tub and a view of the sea. It's one of the nicest places I've ever stayed. It was a nice touch to be visited by monkeys while sitting on the balcony. The food quality from the restaurant was also really nice.
