Amazing Ocean Views and Great Buffets

beach location food option ocean view amazing bed
I loved that this hotel infrastructure stands directly at the beach. This was very good for my surf vacation. The morning buffet had nice indian, sri lankan, and western food options. I did not eat the same thing every day. My ocean view room was amazing on the 8th floor. The beds were super amazing and comfortable there.
The poolside bar charged over 8000 rps for four small carlsberg beers. It felt overpriced.
