Traveled alone. I arrived at 5:00, checked in at 11:30, after 10:00 they put on a bracelet and were allowed to have breakfast (they said it was a gift to me from the hotel). The room is simple, the refrigerator is turned off, they said there is no bar in my room, therefore the refrigerator does not work, respectively, the water (3 liters per person per day) is warm. I asked for water at the bar before the tour - $ 2.
Host tour operator Joyce. The hotel guide - everything is fine, the tour guides are also great, but if you go alone, like me, you can get into a situation where the entire tour group is foreigners, i. e. excursion groups may not select by nationality or language, to whom they sold excursions with those, and you will rest. Somehow, having arrived late from an excursion, after dinner it turned out that dinner was not booked for me and it was not clear who should have done it. But overall the staff is friendly!
The food is monotonous. You don't have to go to breakfast, every day is the same. Lunches and dinners are not bad, but there are few places in the restaurant in the lobby. You can collect food and until you find a place to sit, everything will cool down. The meat is cooked on the street, the line for 20-30 people. And yes, there are queues everywhere!

The sea seems to be there... There are two piers 80 and 180 meters, both killed. Low tides 50-60 meters. There is a reef, but there are very few living creatures.
In general, if it were not for excursions, there is nothing to do in the hotel, there is not much animation. The territory is large, but there is no desire to walk.
TOTAL! The hotel is not bad. Its biggest plus is the price, but there is no 5 * in sight, rather a weak 4, and in some places 3. You can relax, but I will not return there, except for quite ridiculous money.
Good luck to all!
