This hotel is absolutely amazing with an incredible restaurant! Our room (apartment actually) was simply perfect with 2 separate bathrooms and a terrace to view the sunset from at night… The walk from the hotel could take us to amazing views of the Pointe and beaches. And it is 5 minutes drive from the most beautiful beach!

Great views from a relaxing garden with plenty of comfy chairs. Overall a nice hotel. The entry level rooms face south and get too hot in the summer, even with the windows open. They need a fan. Me ruined to the hotel and it was a “too bad” kind of response. Understood AC not needed but invest in a ceiling fan for the south facing rooms so guests get a good night sleep in summer. Otherwise it is a good place for the price.
