Reviews and Ratings
The hotel is located further down the beach, and while it's close to the water, I found the overall experience lacking. The rooms felt outdated and not very clean, which was disappointing. The staff seemed indifferent to guests' needs, including those with dietary restrictions. However, the dining options for breakfast were decent, with good variety and continuous replenishment. Overall, although the price was on the lower side, the value for money just didn’t meet my expectations.
The hotel offers a great pool area and super friendly service, making it a fantastic place for families. However, the rooms are a bit dated and could use some improvements, especially in terms of cleanliness. While the location is convenient, walking to town isn't safe due to the fast road. The dining experience was just okay, with some room for improvement in variety.
I had a mixed experience at this hotel. The location is stunning, with beautiful views of the pools and sea. The service in the restaurant was friendly, but there were some issues understanding dietary needs. While the room had a nice balcony and was functional, I noticed some mold, which was disappointing. The dining options were decent but could use more variety, especially for breakfast.
I had a pleasant stay overall at the hotel, with spacious and clean rooms featuring a nice balcony overlooking the sea. The location is excellent and conveniently connected via a tunnel. However, the service experience was a bit mixed, with some staff being friendly while others were less accommodating. While dining offered decent variety, it could use some enhancement in quality and service, especially for breakfast.
The hotel has some significant downsides, including dirty conditions and poor service that doesn't seem attentive to guests' needs. While it has a convenient location for families looking to relax, the overall experience fails to meet expectations for a four-star property. The amenities provided are simply not up to par, especially considering the price.
