“Set on a historic Dutch fort site, the location is phenomenal, especially the sea view cottages right by the beach, which is kept remarkably clean. The staff shines with warmth and helpfulness; I was especially struck by the duty manager's dedication, alongside expansive dining and wellness options. It feels like a secluded beachfront retreat where relaxation and attentiveness truly meet.”
