This is a beautiful property with unique, rustic design situated in the middle of the village, definitely off the beaten path! The suite we stayed in on the 4th floor had a beautiful view of the ocean and surrounding greenery. The property was well maintained and the staff was amazingly accommodating. We were very comfortable and felt quite safe. Food at the restaurant was fresh and delicious. The pool is absolutely beautiful. The only drawback is that the property is not beachfront, and although the beach is a short distance away, you will have to walk through dirty streets to get there. Other than that, our stay was perfect! We would definitely stay here again.
