Advantages: Near airport, good restaurant, Disadvantages: A bit of a trek to the beach

Somestimes the service ... ...pretty large but basic with bed, wardrobes and table and chairs. They do have good air con though. Same goes for the bathroom. There is quite a lot of storage space. Or you can pay more and stay in a room nearer the pool (but this also means nearer the restaurant = noise) and I think it has extra space and possibly a fridge.
