I had a wonderful time at this place! It's all about the basics, which I truly appreciated as a way to disconnect from everyday life. The beach here is stunning and just steps away. However, it's important to note that it doesn't offer the luxury amenities of bigger hotels, and the shared bathrooms might not be for everyone. Still, the romantic vibe with candles instead of electricity made my experience unique.

This place offers a unique escape that's far from the typical luxury hotels. I appreciated the simple, rustic feel of the cabanas and being steps away from a beautiful beach. The service is friendly but can be slow, so it's not for those in a hurry. The shared bathroom situation might not be ideal for everyone, but it's part of the experience that allows for a cozy and romantic stay. Just keep in mind that there's no electricity, which adds to the primitive charm but might take some adjusting.
