"The staff are very friendly and helpful in all aspects. The property itself is close to everything including the beach, restaurants, supermarkets and village markets. The room service was also great. The amenities may need some upgrade as they are getting a bit old. Especially, I recommend using more modern mattresses instead of the older spring type ones.
