Nirú Ocean Suites by Binniguenda
This resort hotel is the best I’ve ever stayed at. Wow. The rooms are huge and spotless with balconies (if you book a balcony room) that offer amazing views and such a wonderful space to relax. Quiet hotel an area but beach is lively and fun during the day. Food was amazing and very little wasted ...
