My husband and I liked the property very much... very clean, nice pool, very comfortable room; the food was delicious and the service was excellent. There is coffee and purified water available all day, as well as mosquito repellent and sunblock. The beach accross the street was covered with rocks, impossible to swim in, yet nice to sit at and watch the gorgeous sunset. There is a nearby beach - about 18 min walk o 5 min by car - for swimming. Electricity goes off sometimes at night and a generator kicks in right away. We would stay there again.
