The hotel has a prime location for surfers, with beachfront access, but that's where the positives largely end. The rooms are small and aging, and I found the service lacking, especially during check-in. While the pools can be nice, the breakfast leaves much to be desired. Overall, it feels overpriced for what it offers, and I wouldn't choose to stay here again if I return to this beautiful area.

Rooms

The rooms were quite small for three people and seemed outdated; my first room had a musty smell, and the shower only provided either very hot or very cold water.
Service

I encountered unfriendly interactions at check-in, and I felt like I was bothering the staff. Their lack of attentiveness during our stay was disappointing.
Location

You can't beat the location if you're into surfing, just a short walk to the beach, but the surrounding area can feel chaotic at times.

Breakfast was quite average, with options being limited and not very fresh; I was disappointed by the quality of the orange juice as well.

The resort has two pools, but one was in dire need of maintenance. It felt like I was swimming in something toxic, which is alarming.

I had a wonderful stay at this hotel, which boasts an incredible beach perfect for surfing and breathtaking sunset views from the beach-facing rooms. The staff was exceptionally helpful and friendly, and check-in was efficient despite the crowds. However, the surrounding area is quite busy with tourists, which might not appeal to everyone. Overall, a fantastic experience for both families and couples!

My stay at Diria was quite enjoyable, with a beautiful setting and friendly staff that made my experience memorable. The beach access was fantastic, and the activities like yoga and ATVing were highlights. However, I did find the room a bit small and noisy, which detracted from the overall experience. The dining options were plentiful and reasonably priced, but a bit more variety at breakfast would have been great.

I had a fantastic time at this resort! The location is ideal for beach access, and the views from the restaurant are beautiful. The rooms were cozy, clean, and comfortable, but the service had its hiccups, especially at the front desk. Overall, I enjoyed my stay, but there's room for improvement in service and room designs.

My stay at this hotel was a mixed bag. While the location is fantastic, just a stone's throw from the beach and vibrant local shops, the experience was marred by some service issues and the state of the facilities. The rooms were small and in need of maintenance, which detracted from the overall enjoyment, especially considering the price point.
