    The shared kitchen is poorly equipped and not very practical, specially not as a family.

    We had a great time with our Family with two Kids. The Room had air conditioning and Fans, everything was clean and the nights quiet. We enjoyed the pool and the sea right in front. The restaurant had good food as well.

    The were some issues with the WiFi - sometimes the connection was off but most of the time it worked fine. And I wish there was a larger dining table in the kitchen (especially needed for people who stay at the dorms and have less space to eat at.

    The dorms are amazing! Nicely furnished and decorated, very comfortable and well maintained. The kitchen is beautiful too, well equipped and really comfortable for cooking. Of course there is a restaurant that has a really good selection and great food! The staff is very friendly! + You must try the Yoga classes with Roni (the Yoga & Pilates instructor) she is amazing!

    The kitchen is amazing however would be nice to have a larger dining table and more chairs as some times (at the rush hour of lunch and dinner) it is occupied by people and need to wait in order to seat and eat properly :)

    The rooms are very comfortable (the dorms and the private rooms), nicely designed and clean. Roni is an amazing Yoga Instructor! Definitely recommend! The staff is friendly and the restaurant has a nice selection of food and a really good one 😊 + there is a nice kitchen if you want to cook some food for yourself.

    Nothing! I loved.

    What a place! I really enjoyed my stay at Beach Break. The location is perfect; right on the beach next to awesome waves. Their restaurant is really tasty. There is also a kitchen on site if you want to cook as well as a gym and an area to do yoga. I love how they have hammocks hanging in front of each room!

    Great location, great staff, they made you feel like family. The location is perfect right on the beach with waves every day. The town had five or six good restaurants that were easy to walk to. I went there with my two children and felt safe and happy the whole time. Great trip.

    The kitchen equipment is lacking, and what is there needs some updating, but overall, we managed just fine.

    The location was perfect, the staff were kind, there was a free pool table, and the room was a good size and clean and modern. The mattresses are good quality and comfortable.

    Honestly, there wasn't anything I didn't like. Everything was great.

    The location is just perfect! A few meters from the beach, you can see the waves from looking outside of your window. The Hammocks are super nice, the staff are helpful and nice. All the facilities that Beach Break provides are great, and the restaurant is a nice place to sit and chill. We took a few surf lessons and rented boards - everyone was nice to us and helped us with anything we needed. Can say anything bad.

    Little bit expensive if you compare it with other accommodations in the surrounding area. But its a more quiet place than the cheaper ones. So if you like a quiet surrounding and dont mind paying the extra buck, go for this one.

    Super nice location, friendly staff and nice bed!

    More sun beds would be ideal! Also it wasn’t a huge deal but two days passed without housekeeping stopping by, which is noticeable with a room of 6 people

    I loved my stay at Beach Break (my dorm mates ended up being amazing. Dorm 4 Didn’t Snore :) but also it was lovely being directly on the beach. Comfy beds, plenty of space to hang out, and kind staff members.

    Great value for the location. Playa Venao is a hidden secret. The hotel is relaxed surfer style accommodation. I don't surf, but I would still go back for the location.
