My experience at Naay Boutique Hotel was extremely disappointing and unsafe. Despite having a confirmed reservation, my friend and I arrived to find the hotel overbooked with no room available. We waited from 5:00 p.m. to 9:00 p.m. for a resolution. Initially, we were told we’d stay at the Nomade Hotel, but this fell through. Instead, we were driven to a remote cabin by the manager and receptionist, picking up an unvetted man named Alan en route. This made us feel unsafe, as we were two young women on an unfamiliar island.
The cabin lacked air conditioning, secure doors, and basic standards, leaving us unable to shower or change. The next morning, after being abandoned by the hotel manager, we had to pay for our own transportation back. Upon arrival, staff seemed surprised to see us, and we waited until noon for a room. Our first two days were ruined.
To make matters worse, we noticed inconsistencies in how guests were treated. Other guests were accommodated at better hotels, even those who booked last minute, while we were sent to unsafe accommodations. The hotel’s overbooking practices and lack of care for our safety and comfort were appalling.
While the hotel offered a credit, it didn’t compensate for the stress, humiliation, and loss of our vacation. I strongly urge travelers to avoid Naay Boutique Hotel, especially during peak seasons.
