This may have been a very nice property once and it may again be a nice property in the future, but for now we can't recommend it. The air conditioning was not working so the rooms were miserably hot and it was impossible to sleep. Further, we were put in ground floor rooms where we did not feel safe leaving the windows open at night as there was no way to open them partially and it would have been easy for someone to climb right through the window. In one room, one window was broken and didn't open at all and in the other room, the sliding door didn't lock so anyone could have come into the room. There did not seem to be any urgency on fixing the AC - perhaps they're waiting until renovations are done. All of the buildings and the pool area look very run down - a coat of paint would at least make everything look better. On the positive side, the staff was all very friendly and there was easy access to the beach. The area around the hotel felt safe with local families and tourists walking on the wide sidewalk between the road and beach and there were places to eat within walking distance - would recommend Venetian Ice. The lobby of the hotel was lovely as shown in the pictures and rooms were clean. If the hotel management invests some money and renovates the entire property, this could be a very nice place to stay on the beach - maybe by summer 2024...
