Reviews and Ratings
The hotel has some great perks, like a fantastic beachfront location and friendly staff that go above and beyond. The rooms offer a splendid view, but I was a bit let down by the overall value for the price I paid. Dining at the hotel was decent, especially the local desserts, but it didn't excite me as much as I'd hoped. Overall, it made for a nice stay, especially enjoying the massages and pools, but there are definitely areas for improvement.
I had a lovely stay at this hotel, enjoying my junior suite with a private pool right by the beach. The place was super clean and had a great view, although the room felt a bit dated. The staff was fantastic and very friendly, making my experience enjoyable. The location was great for exploring additional beaches, but the dining experience could definitely improve in variety and quality. Overall, I felt it was a decent value for money, even though a few areas could use some upgrades.
The hotel is located in a great area with nice views and easy access to the beach. The rooms were clean and offered a good view of the sea, though they felt a bit dated and dark. The staff was friendly, especially the bar man who made our honeymoon memorable. However, the noise from the bar and hallway can be a bit disruptive, and the dining options left something to be desired.
I had a mixed experience at the hotel. On one hand, the location was fantastic for day trips to nearby beaches, and the staff member Marta Kowalkow was absolutely outstanding. On the downside, the rooms weren't up to par, especially for the price we paid, and the dining options were abundant but not very exciting. Overall, while there were some highlights, the experience didn't quite match the expectations set by the cost.
I had a somewhat mixed experience at this hotel. On the plus side, the location is decent, close to a clean beach and surrounded by bars and restaurants. The staff was exceptionally friendly and helpful, especially the animation team. However, the rooms were quite small and didn’t quite meet my expectations in terms of comfort, and the dining options could definitely use some improvement.
