The hotel is well-located right next to a beautiful lagoon, perfect for exploring natural wonders like glowing plankton. The rooms, while comfortable, are showing signs of wear and could use some renovations. The staff is incredibly friendly and attentive, but there were some concerns about privacy with room checks after hikes. Overall, it offers decent value for money, but the room conditions need improvement.
