Independence Hotel by Dara

Tucked away jn the heart of nature, this place felt like dream. Waking up to birdsong, falling asleep to the hum of the forest, and soaking in views that made my soul exhale. If you're craving peace, greenery, and a true escape - this place is it.😊🌴🛏

As mentioned we had a disappointing trip this time due to drilling noises from the room below us and not being compensated appropriately for this massive inconvenience 2 out of 3 days. The worst was being woken up by loud drilling at about 8:45am the second day; almost had a heart attack and put me in a foul mood all morning. We had extended for another night due to the first day but then it happened again the second day anyway despite complaining and being told it wouldn’t happen again. Standards and service are lacking. Most staff are friendly but there is zero attention to detail. The last morning we finally had no construction noise in the bedroom but there was construction noise out the back of the breakfast area. The waffle station had a thick plastic paint brush from a DIY store being used as a utensil to brush butter onto the waffle iron which is disgusting. Breakfast was stale, old and cold again, mushy old fruit and lots of fruit flies. The hotel has lots of algae/moss on the paths so be very careful as you walk around, I nearly slipped over twice during our stay. Our room had a bath tub on the balcony however there isn’t enough hot water to fill it, so you’ll have to have a cold bath. Our bathroom floor is slopped in the wrong direction so any water runs from the drain down to the bedroom, meaning you need to place towels on the floor to make it safe to walk. The sea water at the beach smelt unclean and there appears to be drainage (hopefully not sewage) pouring into the sea next to hotel. The bridge between the hotel and the beach is really run down and crumbling too, giant plastic sand bags dumped all around it to try and fix the problem, but just looks very un-inviting. There were lots of broken fixtures, lots of rusty rebar sticking out all around the place and electric wires cut, tied and hanging out all along the walkway to the beach which is also very wet! We’ve stayed here many times before. It’s such a great location away from the craziness of the main city, lots of nature, beautiful pool (which closes too early) and right next to the sea. It’s such a historic place with huge potential… I really hope they can focus on raising the standards, service and surroundings area… this used to be one of our favourite places to pop away for the weekend.

One of the highlights of the hotel is the expansive pool area, which is conveniently located adjacent to the ocean and beach. The sight of the shimmering water, coupled with the sound of waves gently lapping at the shore, creates a picturesque setting for both leisure and recreation. Whether lounging by the pool with a good book or taking a refreshing dip in the ocean, the experience is nothing short of blissful. Additionally, the breakfast selection offered at the hotel is abundant and diverse, catering to a wide range of tastes and preferences. From fresh fruits and pastries to hearty hot dishes, there is something to satisfy every palate. The opportunity to enjoy a leisurely breakfast while taking in the stunning views of the surrounding landscape is a delightful way to start each day. In summary, this hotel not only provides a perfect getaway but also creates an unforgettable experience through its beautiful location, exceptional service, and thoughtful amenities. Whether seeking adventure or tranquility, guests are sure to find everything they desire in this idyllic setting.
