Description
This place used to be falling apart, but a recent renovation has spruced it up a good bit. It's been fairly effective -- the rooms are now done up in a minimalist, Japanese style with clean lines and bright colours. The accommodation is split into two areas, with multiple-storey buildings at the rear of the resort and smarter duplex bungalows towards the water's edge. We couldn't help but feel that the rooms were still on the small side (nothing a refurbishment can do about that) and that some of the old problems were already beginning to show through the 'new paint job'. They have little Citroen motor-cycles with side cars to run guests to and from town, which is pretty cute. And there's a fairly large rectangular swimming pool overlooking the beach. But the one at the Golden Sands next door is way more impressive, and the rooms there are better value in this price range. One good reason to stop by the Victoria, though, is for the food. Be prepared to pay dearly, but their Austrian Chef-slash-motocross biker Gustav has been getting good press -- chat with him before you order to find out what he recommends. We found the staff to be weary and curt and the rooms well over-priced, particularly those in the two-storey buildings towards the rear.
