The hotel offers a lovely beachfront experience with a restaurant that has beautiful sunset views and live music. The rooms are generally good-sized and comfortable, but cleanliness could be improved. Unfortunately, there are some noise issues from the restaurant, which might disturb your sleep. Overall, it's a nice choice for the location, but be prepared for some downsides.

Staying at this resort was a delightful experience. The location was unbeatable, right on Bounty Beach with stunning sunset views. The rooms were clean and offered a comfortable stay, and the restaurant had a fabulous atmosphere.

I had a lovely time at this beachfront hotel, especially appreciating the thoughtful details like the outdoor rinse station for sandy feet and sustainable water bottles. The room was clean and comfortable, but the bathroom could use some updating, and I noticed some cleanliness issues with the fridge. While the live music at the restaurant was delightful, the noise at night could be bothersome. Overall, it was a decent stay, but some aspects could certainly improve.

Hippocampus Beach Resort offers a clean and modern atmosphere with comfortable accommodations, making it a decent choice for anyone visiting. The great location right by the beach adds to its charm, but there are some downsides: the Wi-Fi can be quite unreliable, and the loud music at night might not sit well with those looking to get up early for diving. All in all, it's a good spot for a relaxing stay, especially for divers.
