The Worst Hotel Experience – Avoid at All Costs
We booked based on glowing reviews, but this was easily the worst hotel experience we've ever had.
Our room reeked of sewage from the bathroom drains — so badly I refused to shower after a hot day of travel. Staff confirmed the smell, yet the owner’s husband insisted it didn’t exist, even cornering me alone to “prove” it. When I pointed out the obvious, he accused our luggage of causing the smell. Gaslighting at its finest.
Breakfast was another low point: rude service obsessed with counting who had paid, refusing to let our daughters even look at the buffet before deciding. The food? Cold, rubbery eggs and sad options. We were also told we could only have one beach towel for the entire stay — no replacements, even if dirty.
The property has some superficial charm and is close to the beach, and one female staff member was kind — but it’s a bit shabby. We ended up checking into Lagos Mare (a fantastic nearby hotel) and only kept one room here for our daughters with a group of 10 we were with. When we requested a partial refund, the owner’s husband became confrontational and abusive.
Between the sewage stench, the rude and bizarre treatment, and the terrible service, this hotel completely ruined the start of our vacation. Do yourself a favour — stay anywhere else.
