We would like to thank Ally, Hassan and all the staff for making our stay as pleasant and comfortable as possible! Everyone was very hospitable and friendly. We felt like home all the time. The hosts not only helped us with our questions, but also organized excursions for us. Delicious food, good location (close to the beach and the village where you can buy groceries and fruits and souvenirs). We definitely recommend this hotel!

Very clean and spacious room, with good kitchen facility and welcoming owners. The location is not too far from the beach and the price was the best in the area for a solo traveller. Definitely recommended.
