This place was only okay. There were windows in the bathroom, lavatory, and shower that were low set with no ability to cover them and a clear view from the outside in. The area was under construction which was not disclosed prior to arriving. The private pool was not filtering so it was just standing water (it looked like some of the other guests’ pools worked, though). We were roomed in an adjoining suite that we did not have access to or key for and found out on the second day that it had been left completely unlocked by the staff (we could not lock it ourselves because it was a deadbolt). The area around the hotel did not match the pictures in the listing. The staff was nice which was their best quality. Overall it’s not the worst but definitely not what we were expecting.

Do not stay here!!!! Go on google and look at all guests photos EVERY SINGLE ONE is what I arrived to and sadly all other guests too!
It’s Dirty and unkept! Do not waste your money! this was suppose to be my honeymoon and I haven’t been refunded and the hotel won’t do anything.. I’ve had to pay for another villa just to get out of there .. after everything we faced No apology from staff… they wasn’t even slightly embarrassed at the condition of this place..: this is what we was expected to stay in!!!!
▪️urine round the toilet from previous guest
▪️ unwashed cups as lipstick was still on cups from the previous guest
▪️dirty floors unwashed unclean again stains from previous guest, sand all over the floor..
▪️dirty bedsheets
▪️leaking fridge
▪️unfiltered swimming pool .. YUK!
▪️no privacy or security of the room as the doors don’t lock
▪️dirty sofas full of stains so bad we didn’t want to even sit on them
▪️dirty mirrors and windows on doors … thick with dust and smears that you could barely see through them!
▪️unkept and not clean decking area
▪️dangerous amenities had to boil kettle on the floor that leaked dangerous boiling water
▪️room right next to bar with no seclusion not private at all which isn’t stated!!
Awful place! Awful staff

Lovely place to stay with Lamai restaurants and night life just a 5min walk away. The resort doesnt have its own sunbeds on the beach which is the only minor negative comment.

Staff were incredibly helpful and always cheerful. Especially Bryan.
Villa we had was perfect, garden view and secluded.
Bar food was always good, drinks not overpriced, pool never overcrowded.
Will be rebooking for next year.

comfortable bed
it rained all the time, the staff were helpful and spoke good english
The restaurant is only open for breakfast.
The toilet had a transparent glass wall, which could be closed off with a curtain,
but otherwise a good place to stay, close to the beach

Great hotel amazing staff
What can I say about this place, the staff are delightful and so helpful, nothing is a problem the manager Alon reception staff Toi and Ann where an absolute delight and everybody always happy always smiling, my villa (villa 1) was perfect the view out to the beach and sea was beautiful and the room spotless and well maintained, if there was any tiny problems the staff quickly rectified it, and smiled and apologized for the trouble, the Zara’s location is brilliant 60 feet to the beach 300 meters to the food market and just a short stroll in to lanai, and Covid finishes your right in the door step for the excellent Sunday night market, thank you so much Zara beach ❤️

Not good experience
We were staying in beach view villa with pool.
There was beech behind small river and small "park" not well kept, so beech view was not very good, almost non existing.
Buildings are very old and requires renovation.
First villa they gave us was very dark and uncomfortable. Chair and sofa did not look very good, shelf below TV looked that it might drop down.
We got a bit better beech view pool villa. Also that was uncomfortable, pool had lot of dead insects and it was not properly cleaned while we stayed, so we could not use it. Villa was cleaned on middle of each room, but corners were having lot of black dirt.
Hotel staff was friendly and helpful.

apart from the villas the resort is nothing like the photos on most of the online sites, there is no sea view due to on-going building works, there is no spa retreat only a massage in your own room, there is no beachside restaurant this is now a communal gym all of which disappointed us on our arrival as we expected what we had seen as advertised
