Minuses

Despite the harmonious picture, there were nevertheless several moments that were met negatively.

• These include the fact of the temporary absence of hot water. According to some tourists, it is served smoothly in the morning and in the afternoon. And by the evening there are problems. However, such comments are rare. We can assume that this season, for example, repairs were conducted, and this problem was temporary.

Since it is during this period is favorable for sea rest, the weather. The average temperature is about 30 degrees. Warm water. In the summer season monsoons and lower temperatures are observed.
• Reviews of experienced tourists categorically do not recommend taking things to washing, arguing that the clothes are dried under the scorching sun. And this method can damage the color and quality of tissues.

• The distance to the beach is a kilometer. Not everyone can overcome it to their liking. To do this, in part, and provides for the rental of bicycles and scooters. And this is additional spending.
• And one more disadvantage was the language barrier. The fact that all the staff at the hotel speaks English. People who do not own it will have to hire an interpreter and pay extra for their services. Of course, there is another option - to choose another resort where there will be no such complexity.
