"The location was perfect! The beach was a minute walking distance away and lots of restaurants and shops next to the hotel. We had a corner room, and the view of the beach was picturesque. Totally amazing! It’s also 3 minutes walking distance to the funicular. The staff was superb, very accomodating to our needs! Thank you Melissa for making us feel welcomed. We would definitely stay again and highly recommend this property.
Obrigada from Hawaii."
