I had a lovely time at this boutique hotel, which is beautifully modern and extremely clean. The views of the lagoon were stunning, making my stay quite delightful. However, the noise from the connecting halls was a bit distracting, and the bathroom was on the smaller side due to its door opening inward. Overall, a very nice experience but could use some tweaks for ultimate comfort.

My stay at the hotel had its ups and downs. The rooms were quite spacious and modern, but I found them to be uncomfortably hot, almost like a sauna. While the service staff was mostly attentive and friendly, the initial welcome was a bit off. The location offers a beautiful natural setting by the lagoon, but it's quite isolated, which makes it necessary to rely on hotel amenities. Dining was decent, though some options felt a bit overpriced. Overall, it’s a charming place if you don’t mind the heat and isolation.

I had a mixed experience at this hotel. The service staff were genuinely friendly and eager to help, but the overall vibe was not very luxurious. The location had beautiful surroundings, perfect for relaxation, but it was somewhat isolated, making it challenging to explore the area without relying on taxi rides. The dining options left a lot to be desired, and the room cleanliness could definitely have been better.

My stay at this boutique hotel was a mix of great and not-so-great experiences. I loved the beautiful surroundings with nature right outside, which offered a peaceful escape. However, the room was more noisy than expected due to connecting halls, and the dining options could have been better for the price. Despite some minor issues, it was overall a solid experience for those seeking a nature getaway.
