What our guests says about facilities

The hotel offers amenities for your comfortable stay and unforgettable experiences

Fantastic Food Choices

I had all my meals at the hotel's restaurant, and I was truly impressed. The menu isn't overly extensive, but the classic items they serve are fantastic! The grilled snapper and burgers were my absolute favorites. It’s great to have a convenient and reasonably priced dining option right on the premises.

We had a great experience staying at the hotel, and the value for money was impressive. The rooms were spacious and clean, with air conditioning that worked perfectly. The staff were really helpful, but the Wi-Fi was quite spotty, which was a bit frustrating. Overall, it's a lovely place if you’re looking for a comfortable stay at a reasonable price, especially if you're using a boat with the convenience of ice available.
