"The staff are courteous and welcoming"

"Great hotel and staff. Rooms were clean and comfortable. Some building work going on, but not intrusive. Good food and drink."

"I got to Rocco’s early August 2026 and it was so hot during the day. The rooms had really good air conditioning and there is a nice pool near by. The staff are very hospitable and super friendly."

"Close to everything with great staff, breakfast and the rooms were very comfortable. Would stay again"

"Thanks to Kisha and her family we had the best stay. Thank you. If we could we would have stayed longer . Directly on the beach, great surf teacher."
