Reviews
We are considering a reservation at the hotel for early august this year.
We are aware that the winds around the island can be rather strong for this time of year .
Would you kindly confirm that your location is quite sheltered and an idea of sun hours and temperature.
Kindly regards
L&k
I wouldn't ask for more
When we arrived the hotel gave us an upgrade to beach villa
The villa is very clean and we'll designed, it had a private swimming pool, jacuzzi as well, and access to the beach directly from the villa.
Breakfast was included, we tried the moroccan restaurant and the hotel main restaurant. They offer different cuisine everyday in the main hotel restaurant, food there is unforgettable, so delicious and various, every single thing we had was really so yummy.
The hotel is very safe and secured.
