Thank you for a waterfront room. The staff very friendly and our check-in was quick. Nice to have aircon on when we arrived. Rooms need an upgrade, which I was told was happening soon.

The ocean view studio is perfect - sitting right over the beach and with a little kitchenette. It’s an older resort but they keep it well maintained. The pool has beautiful day beds and tables so you can relax after a day at the beach! They don’t do turtle friendly lighting though, which was surprising given the location. Other hotels on the beach have a lights-out policy but ours was brightly lit all night. But the staff are super friendly and it's a short walk to Bargara main street, so it's hard to beat!

Stayed in the 3brm executive room and it was perfect! Newly renovated and a perfect home away from home. We were so comfortable in this space. It was beautifully presented, clean, and our entertaining area overlooking the pool was amazing. The shared area overlooking the beach was amazing!
