I had a wonderful stay at this resort that totally exceeded my expectations. The room was spacious with amazing ocean views, and it felt like a peaceful escape from the typical tourist spots. Overall, I loved the quiet setting and natural beauty, but I should mention that swimming at the beach can be challenging due to strong surf. Additionally, the dining facilities could use a bit of variety.

My stay at Sea Mountain was mostly peaceful and fulfilling, surrounded by nature and away from the hustle and bustle. The amenities in the unit were great for self-catering, which I appreciated. However, do be aware that it's quite isolated, and there aren't any nearby dining options, so come prepared with groceries. Overall, it offers great value for the money.
