Bad breakfast
Got sick for two days throwing up because of the breakfast that was included in the stay, which made my stay in ebony and ivory very bad. Otherwise good and clean rooms.

Property as described. Basic, but adequate for a few days. Staff are responsive and owner is very good at being available and communicating. Good shower, some units have bonus air conditioning and refrigerator, and conveniently right next to the beach. Bring your own soap and remember to ask for anything you need, and it’s a lovely place to stay for a good price. Breakfast is as usual for a TZ guestie; fresh fruit, toast and jam, tea/coffee, and eggs. On friday nights, the area is a little loud from a nearby club, but that’s not the fault of or controlled by the owner.

havde bestilt 14 dages ophold, men der var overbooket da vi kom, så vi fik første nat i et lille hummer, langt fra den standard vi havde booket. næste dag fik vi det ønskede værelse. fantastisk beliggenhed og servicen var OK. specielt var Diana en stor kapacitet og var hele tiden på pletten for at høre om hun kunne hjælpe med noget og om vi var tilfredse. hunvar uundværlig og fortjener 5 stjerner. morgenmaden var efter prisen udmærket. en fantastisk strand.

Обычный мотель
В целом - не плохо. Близко от пляжа. С 5:00 очень шумно, а стёкл нет и слышно как деревня живет своей жизнью.

複数件のロッジを持っているまたは共有しているオーナーと思われ実際に予約したロッジではないところへ泊まる場合がありました。 どちらも大差ありませんがハウスキーピングが毎日あるか無いかなどの違いはあります。 程度は普通ですが値段とのバランスでいえば満足です。
