    This was an incredibly lovely and cozy resort right by the beach. The hotel's restaurant had excellent cold drinks, which we enjoyed a lot. Additionally, the resort is incredibly close to some charming restaurants and cafes such as The Doctors House, Swell Cafe, and more.

    I really enjoyed my time at Beach Inns Holiday Resort. The guesthouse is located beside a beautiful beach in a peaceful area away from the busy main road. The large seaside terrace is a wonderful place to relax and enjoy the scenery, with the palm trees offering welcome shade during the heat of the day. My room was clean and spacious and the management and staff were very helpful and friendly. I would definitely stay here again.

    We were really happy with our stay in Culture Resort. Initially we didn’t like the room given to us at first so the staff immediately offered us a different option which satisfied us. The host was helpful. The waiters at the restaurant were really attentive. The rooms were clean. The pool was refreshing. The view and sound of the ocean made our stay even more comforting. We would recommend this place!

    Very nice and simple house right at the end of Polhena Beach, with great sea view from the room. Although quite simply furnished, everything is very carefully maintained and the staff is extremely friendly and helpful. And: you can watch Green Seaturtles from the garden in the afternoon and even swim with them in the morning! A very nice place, no luxury but a great nature experience!

    We ended up having the entire resort to ourselves as they are just beginning to reopen - the view of the water is beautiful. The pool was well maintained. Food was delicious and staff was exceptional at anything we needed.
