The property was clean and the food was fabulous! The staff including Deyan, Romi and Sarah were very accommodating and friendly. Beach entry is a little rough but they have plenty of loungers on the dock for sunning. I would visit again.

Fantastic little hotel with friendly, happy hosts and staff. Approachable at all times. We have booked already for next year and can’t wait to return.
Sand and Tan describes the hotel, literally.

Pictures do not tell a 1000 words
The property is located on a beautiful beach. However, I would not recommend these accommodation for anyone who cares about their health or cleanliness. The rooms are mouldy and the dampness is repugnant. The linens are less than fresh and smell as if they were washed in the nearby river. There is barely any water coming out of the shower as the leaks and the tub is slippery and obviously dirty shower curtain with grime and dirt at the end of the shower curtain.

It’s a small hotel run almost like a family operation. Everybody had a smile on their face and made every effort to make our stay wonderful. You could hear the waves crashing on the beach through out the day and night, hotel is like 10m from the beach. Breakfast was made from scratch every morning, wonderful. Dinner choices in the evening were also delicious. I give our stay a 10 , exceeded expectations

Mario, the owner, is great. Threw me a little birthday party which was very loving while I was going through a hard time. The ocean lulls you to sleep. The pier is wonderful to lay on while listening to the waves. It’s also deep enough to jump off of and feel like a kid again. The river is walking distance on the beach and it is very family friendly. The food is top notch. Highly recommend.

Spent 4 days there this past March.
The view from the balcony of our room was beautiful
But room could use more cleanliness
Hot water in the bathroom was not hot.
The place need a little more tic
The pictures online when booking looks amazing but the reality is a little deceiving. If you’re an average traveler needing a place to stay and on budget, this is for you but if you’re looking for something nice well maintained and updated then this is not your style. On the other hand the staff was amazing. From the front counter girl Blu to Miss Janice to Romy to the owner omg they were really nice people
We enjoyed interacting with them and everything we ask they did for us. Thank you
