The hotel is located directly on the esplanade, a busy coastal road. The complex consists of a one-story main building, as well as several bungalows. In the city, with various restaurants, bars and shopping, are within walking distance. Swimming in the sea in the immediate vicinity unfortunately not possible. Read more

We spent three nights and were very pleased. A comfortable resort under palm trees with a short distance to shops and bars.
The Darwin wave lagoon, within 10-15 minutes walking distance.
At the reception there was even a woman, who spoke German. The rest of the staff was more than friendly. We had a room next to the uncovered bins outside, so it was a bit noisy in the morning, but it wasn't't really disturbing.
For a longer stay, you should this may change. Anyway recommendable, price/performance ratio was very reasonable for me! Read more

From a previous stay we had the hotel in very good memories. This time we had but instead of superior room only a standard room.
This are much smaller and my opinion loveless decorated.
The cleanliness left to be desired, at the walls and the sheets seemed stuck boogers had not been changed.
As this hotel has lots of families with children staying, it is advisable, no connecting-rooms so rooms with connecting doors, to get.
The hotel is close to the center, many attractions and shops are within easy walking distance.
Despite some shortcoming... Read more
