I didn’t like the fact that all over my body bed bugs have bitten me, i got bad rashes on my body i am suffering so much i had to visit a doctor after that God, they really need to work on the hygiene and cleanliness and the food they offer l, they also charge 5 dollar extra for the AC room which was not told to us during the booking time that’s the biggest scam they do. And then while making the payment they easily earn 5 dollars extra, biggest scam No beach view nothing at all, just the slum view from the back I got bitten by the bed bugs my whole body has rashes right now no work on insect management has been done

Reviewed Apr 18, 2026Die Lage in der Nähe des Strandes ist sehr gut, auch der Swimmingpool ist super zur Erholung und Erfrischung bei den heißen Temperaturen. Das Personal ist sehr freundlich und bemüht sich sehr, einen zu unterstützen und den Aufenthalt gelingen zu lassen. Es ist sehr angenehm, dass sie auch bei der Planung von Touren, TukTuk Fahrten und ähnlichem ihre Unterstützung anbieten. Das Frühstück wird mit viel Liebe und Mühe vorbereitet.
Ich bin seit einigen Monaten bereits unterwegs, und in jeder Unterkunft ist es bisher so gewesen, dass man eine Flasche Wasser am Tag umsonst zur Verfügung gestellt bekommen hat. Das war hier im Ocean View nicht der Fall, jeder einzelne Flasche Wasser musste gesondert bezahlt werden. Der Betrag ist nicht hoch, aber es wäre trotzdem schön, wenn man als Aufmerksamkeit eine Flasche Wasser bekommen würde. Es wäre außerdem angenehm, wenn man im Zimmer oder an einem zentralen Punkt Zugang zu einem Wasserkocher hätte.
