Reviews and Ratings
The hotel offers clean and comfortable rooms with a huge shower, fridge, kettle, and a bowl of fruit with plates and cutlery; however, the bathroom and kitchen area need updating. The room is small with just a bed, bathroom, and balcony visible upon entry. The location is good, tranquil, and beautiful for leisure, though the main entertainment area can be loud. The dining experience is satisfactory with a buffet covering various breakfast options. Overall, a decent stay with some room for improvement.
I had a lovely stay at the hotel; the rooms were clean and pleasant, and we were fortunate to get an upgrade to a lovely and spacious suite. The unique layout with a washbasin next to the bed added a charming touch. While the room was a bit dark, it actually helped keep it cool during the sunny days. However, there was a slight issue as it didn't exactly match our booking expectations.
My stay at the hotel was a mix of pleasant surprises and a few bumps along the way. The rooms, especially with a sea view, offered a lovely experience, though the noise from the delivery area was an unexpected wake-up call. The service had its ups and downs, with outstanding pool bar staff but inconsistent help elsewhere. The location was a great starting point for exploring both the lively entertainment spots and the serene harbor, even though some areas needed attention. The dining options varied, with some hits and misses, but overall adequate. The facilities provided added convenience, making the stay enjoyable.
