We just went there without booking. The staff were extremely friendly and accommodating and tried very hard to find a room for us. We got a bungalow in the 1st row 😊. The rooms are a bit small but sparkling clean, with a huge terrace and sea views. Water and electricity work perfectly. Pools are clean and the food is very good, you can even have it delivered to your room. The whole facility was very well maintained and the staff was super friendly and professional. The beach is awesome. Clean and not too strong a current. Great resort, highly recommended. PS: it's better to book in advance 😉
