    pool area
    beach access
    limited breakfast options

    Had a lovely time here! The pool area was perfect for relaxing, and I enjoyed the beach access for some sunbathing. The only downside was the breakfast could have used more veggie options, but overall, a great stay! 🌞

    Do recommend for a fleeting moment

    Clean and well-maintained hotel, friendly and helpful staff, the outdoor swimming pool was refreshing and had ample sun loungers available for relaxing after a day of exploring.

    Zero issues.

    entertainment options
    beach proximity
    breakfast variety

    This hotel offered great entertainment options for both kids and adults. We enjoyed the fun activities offered throughout the day, and the proximity to the beach made it easy for our grown children to head out to explore! The staff even arranged for a baby cot for our little one, which was helpful.

    In my wife’s opinion, the breakfast options could use a bit more variety. A better selection of fresh fruits and vegetables would have made for a healthier start to our days.

    The stay was enjoyable with clean amenities and comfortable beds. I appreciated the variety at breakfast, especially the fresh pastries, which were a delightful treat. However, the wifi connection wasn't very reliable, and the pool area could use some updates. Overall, it was a great experience for a business trip, and the proximity to local attractions made it even better.

    outdoor swimming pool

    would definitely visit it again

    The double room was spacious with air conditioning and a lovely balcony. The bathroom had a bath and shower. Free toiletries. The outdoor swimming pool was great, and I loved the sun loungers. Breakfast had freshly baked pastries and good coffee. Staff were friendly, and the beach was just a short stroll away.

    limited evening entertainment
    average food variety

    The location is excellent, just a short walk to the beach, and the room was always clean and comfortable. However, the staff could benefit from improved customer service, as some were unhelpful. While the breakfast selection was fantastic, the evening entertainment was lacking in variety.
