"Hotel was nice, rooms were large and clean. Lots of pools to swim in. Staff were helpful. As an American, we were unaware that although the hotel is right on the beach - you can not swim in the ocean due to crocodiles. A very convenient location to do all the day excursions around the area. Overall, a great trip !"
