"The sea view is very nice. The hotel breakfast is also very tasty and their alacarte menu for dinner etc is also very tasty. The reception staff and housekeeping staff are very nice and very very helpful. They really try their best. I loved the hotel, only problem is that there was no alcohol available but otherwise its a very nice hotel. However, please note its not possible to enter the beach as its made of stones and water is very shallow."
