Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities
The resort is not owning any private beach but cooperating with very close walking distance lodge for free sunbeds. This aspect, linked to a very poor service, tidiness and customer care, makes Arya absolutely over expensive and over promising in his presentation.
