Reviews
The sofa bed was broken, and we had to get it replaced. We arrived at 10pm, and informed them in advance that we just want to go straight to bed. This didn't happen. The bath was terrible.
Few good things included the spa.. It was ok.... And the breakfast was good. Location is excellent. Rating from poor, fair, ok, good, very good, excellent.
Bar in the evening was good. There was live music on the night that we stayed.
It's not a party place, but all the ingredients for a vacation are there. The restaurant is really great, very good food, spacious lounges, large terrace in the summer, etc. Great views and a relaxing atmosphere. I liked it.
Cons:
Rooms are out dated. No smart TV with 4k resolution that would have netflix etc. TV remote is hard to use since you need to point that exactly to the corner of the TV that the signal is received.
Noise insulation is mediocre. Woke up when children were running in the corridor.
Mediocre breakfast. Nothing special. No espresso, cappuccino, etc. in the breakfast. No dark filtered coffee either. Medium roast they had.
At spa, they were almost out of soap. First locker I tried was broken.
By 210 € per night (including the parking), I would expect way more than this.
Pros:
We had a two bedroom superior room that was spacious. The couch and balcony were nice.
The surroundings are beautiful if you like nature and the sea.
I guess if you have a family, then this spa-hotel could be nice.
