Even though I couldn't understand the language, the power occasionally went out and came back right away. The food was also varied and enriched, and there were different programs in the evening. The attentive service attitude can be felt. The only drawback is that the car used in the hotel is too old and the air conditioner does not cool down.

Very good hotel. Except for the bad road when driving in, everything else is great. They prepared cakes when they knew it was our birthday and sang happy birthday during dinner. Breakfast and dinner were both good. The car battery was dead when we left on the third morning. The electricity was turned on, and the hotel helped to connect it. Thank you very much!

There are not many types of meals, but the environment and service are very good. The reserved room directly faces the sea. The swimming pool is sea water. It would be better if there is fresh water. I recommend this hotel

We had the pleasure of meeting Maureen, who is in charge at front office Essque Hotel. Although we initially arrived a bit disappointed, Maureen completely turned our experience around. She provided us with exceptional service, stayed in touch throughout our stay, and truly made us feel at home. She constantly checked in to make sure we were satisfied and went above and beyond to ensure everything was perfect for us. Her warm and professional attitude made all the difference—we felt like we were in the best hands. Thank you, Maureen, for making our stay unforgettable!
