you absolutely need a car, you need to bring your own food, and it is a hostel not a hotel by any stretch of the imagination. Also note that we are not high maintenance or fussy people.
We book this hotel as part of our honeymoon over Christmas break. I'll break it into areas:
Check in: Upon arrival, the cleaning lady was the only staff there, she checked us into the wrong room (not her fault), since no management was there we called Laura who argued with my husband that he was wrong and he checked his email to confirm she did promise us a certain room, so she said they would reduce the cost of the room.
Room: no toiletries existed, tiny old tv but was promoted as a 32" plasma, you need to wait 15 minutes for a trickle of warm water in the shower.
Pool: can fit 2-3 people comfortably
Pool bar: does not exist, there is only a bar if you bring your own beer or liquor.
Restaurant/food: it's a kitchen not a restaurant. Breakfast is bread, a couple kinds of fruit, and coffee. The closest restaurant/store is at least 5 km away down an extremely steep hill.
Owner/management: spends more time at the beach than the hotel and isn't interested in the guests or running the hotel at all.
Customer Service: Miserable. We were so unhappy after night 1 that we asked the owner the next morning before he went to the beach if we could check out early. He said no problem, so we confirmed " we were supposed to stay for 4 nights, but it is ok that we are going to be leaving 2 days earlier." He said no problem again. So we stayed night 2 and left the hotel the next morning. When we saw our credit card statement we were charged the full prices for the two nights we stayed. Laura (whom we never saw but called the first day) claimed that we only got a price break based on staying 4 nights, but it was because she messed up our rooms! The hotel has refused to respond to us and I've been nothing but reasonable. They owe us $70US.
