I had a wonderful experience at this hotel, which is set in a stunning natural environment that makes you feel at home right away. The views of the ocean were simply breathtaking, and I loved the community feel of the place. However, the rooms were quite simple and smaller than expected. Overall, the kiteboarding facilities and the staff made my stay unforgettable, but a few upgrades in the room size could enhance comfort. I'm looking forward to my next visit!
