Reviews and Ratings
The hotel offers spacious rooms with a stunning sea view but falls short in cleanliness. While the spa closes early, the staff is attentive. Overall, not the best recommendation due to cleanliness issues.
I stayed at this hotel with family and friends for five nights. The room was big enough and okay, but it wasn't the cleanest with some dust on the table and units. Overall, it offered a comfortable stay at an affordable price.
The hotel boasts a fantastic location directly on the beach with attentive and friendly staff, yet the dining experience fell short of expectations. The rooms, although comfortable and well-equipped, had some cleanliness issues like dirty carpets and a persistent smell. The hotel offers a great value for money considering the excellent beachfront location.
I had a mixed experience at this hotel. The rooms were very large and boasted stunning sea views, but unfortunately, my rucksack got soaked due to a leaking balcony. The service was below par, with delays and lack of assistance, although the location right on the beach with multiple pools and spa facilities was a major highlight. The dining options fell short of expectations. Despite some drawbacks, the hotel offers decent facilities.
The hotel rooms are spacious but unfortunately very dirty, and the spa closes early at 4 pm, which is quite inconvenient. Parking is an additional expense. I wouldn't recommend this hotel as it falls far below expectations.
