The beachfront location of this budget hotel is a definite plus, with some rooms offering views of the ocean. The rooms themselves are basic but comfortable, with amenities such as air-conditioning and private bathrooms. The staff is generally polite and helpful, and the breakfast is decent.

The place provides reasonable prices. The hotel is lovely small and in a stunning location very close to the beach. Its staff are really helpful, I enjoyed it. They have a lot of meals to choose from, the food is great...
The bathrooms are wet.

We had an amazing time at a resort near the beach. The rooms were impeccably clean, spacious, and had beautiful bathrooms. The owner was super friendly and took good care of the property. The location was perfect, just a short walk to the beach. We highly recommend staying here!

Homey vibe, practical room designs, good spots for yoga, and relax. Kitchen with blender for fruits. Reasonable and honest owner kept the place clean. Best quality/price ratio in Abay! See you next season!

I had a wonderful stay at a simple bungalow just a few steps away from the sand. The upstairs balcony offered a lovely, if partially obstructed, view of the water, which was perfect for sitting and listening to the surf. The bungalow itself was very clean and equipped with good mosquito netting.
Although there were a couple of drawbacks, such as the limited services available at the guest house and the presence of only one shower tap, the overall experience was positive. The room was spacious and comfortable, with daily cleaning provided by the friendly staff.

The room we stayed in had a balcony with stunning views of the sea. It was so peaceful and relaxing to sit out there and soak up the scenery. The double room had a cozy seating area where we could unwind after a long day of exploring. It felt like our own little retreat. We loved that our room had a private entrance, making it easy for us to come and go without disturbing anyone. The air conditioning in the room was a real lifesaver during the hot summer days. We could escape the heat and enjoy a comfortable night's sleep. Having a patio in our double room was a great bonus. It was the perfect spot to enjoy our morning coffee and take in the beautiful garden views.
Personally, we didn't find the fireplace in the room necessary as it was quite warm during our stay. However, others might enjoy the cozy ambiance it provides.

the rooms were clean with an amazing view of the ocean. the location was perfect with everything I needed nearby, including restaurants and shops.
the beach was not well-maintained and had a lot of litter which made it difficult to enjoy.

The beach is just a stone's throw away from this resort, making it very convenient for sunbathing and swimming. The locality is filled with numerous options to dine which is good for foodies. The rooms are simply furnished, but clean and airy which is great to sleep in.
Rooms are basic and unadorned, which left me with a feeling that it was a little overpriced. The staff was unfriendly and seemed disinterested in making our stay enjoyable, even the English-speaking staff seemed unwilling to help.
