"Great location. Would 100% stay here again. I would not do their onsite breakfast as you typically pay for it while booking. There’s many little breakfasts places around that I would have rather tried. We booked a water taxi through the hotel paid in cash and no receipt. It was there but also kind of felt like a scam. I’m sure we could have easily just gone to taxi stand and got our own."
