There are Beach Front rooms, within walking distance of the shore; rooms with tropical garden views, ideal for nature enthusiasts; upper-floor rooms equipped with panoramic ocean-view terraces; and ground-floor rooms that are comfortable without being particularly distinctive.

Pure relaxation awaits!
