The hotel offers a lovely stay near the quiet beach with good restaurant options around. The rooms come with a nice balcony, but the shower could be improved. The service is satisfactory, and the location is ideal for a relaxing vacation. However, the dining lacks variety, and the facilities could use some updates.

The hotel is situated right on the beach in a quiet area with plenty of good restaurants around. The rooms come with balconies and offer excellent showers, granting a comfortable stay. While the service provides car hire and helpful assistance for tours, the paid shuttle service may slightly increase costs. The location is ideal for beach lovers and those seeking proximity to dining options, although the price might be a bit high compared to similar establishments. The dining experience offers freshly made Mediterranean dishes but lacks variety. Overall, a decent stay with minor drawbacks.
