Seasonal information

********************
For stays between April and December, increased occurrences of seaweed and algae may occur due to wind, temperature, and currents. In particular, brown algae are often found more frequently in the Caribbean during this period, affecting the beach and the sea. Hotel management and local authorities are, of course, endeavoring to clean affected beach sections in cooperation with local municipalities. However, this requires the use of appropriate equipment, which can cause a slight noise disturbance.
