Reviews
If you get a room with pool & seaview make sure there is no wedding reception by the pool or else it will get really noisy in your room. There's a shuttle bus to the beach but it's very small and with limited trips each day so it becomes a challenge to get on it.
Neither I nor my little daughter could get any proper rest, as the construction noise (drilling, hammering, and heavy machinery) started at 6 AM and continued until 9 PM every day. Despite asking several times to change to a quieter room away from the construction site, no action was taken.
If you are looking for peace, relaxation, and a pleasant holiday, I strongly recommend you do not choose this hotel.
Breakfast had plenty of options to choose from, which I really appreciated, but the restaurant felt a little cramped for the number of guests.
A few small things could make the experience perfect:
• The shower design lets water spill onto the bathroom floor.
• The face towels are a bit rough—softer ones would feel nicer.
• Housekeeping could be a bit more thorough, with a quick final check after cleaning.
Overall, it’s a fantastic hotel with stunning views, and I’d happily recommend it.
