Fantastic view, Fantastic room. Fantastic food. Fantastic pool.
The only drawback was the distance to the beach. Foreigners are charged $6 to access the closest one which takes 25 minutes to walk. The next closest is 8km.
Bottom line is: I'd gladly stay here again.

Very cool setting. Got to see a couple of Toucans near the pool.
The room had issues with the shower and the mattress was very hard and uncomfortable.
