Room was clean, although slightly cramped in the living room. Would be nice to have a light near the window too. But, overall, a very nice property. We would definitely stay here again.

Safe and quiet neighborhood

4/5 - Good

Verified traveller

The west side of the island is more industrial and less developed. Drove up to hike Kaala mnt. And the towns we passed by looked like ghettos. Otherwise, the area right around the resort is clean, safe and walkable.

4/5 - Good

Verified traveller

A great family destination - we'll be back with grandchildren in tow.

5/5 - Excellent

4/5 - Good

Great location to stay and travel to see the rest of the island. Easy to get to the H1 main highway.
