I couldn't have asked for a better spot to stay, right by the beach and within reach of many restaurants. The rooms were spotless and cozy, and the staff was incredibly warm. The dining offerings left a bit to be desired with limited options, but the pool area was a delight. The pricing was fair, yet having to pay extra for Wi-Fi was a small letdown.

I had a lovely stay at this hotel with a few ups and downs. The rooms were equipped with a basic kitchenette and had a nice bathroom and modern furniture, making them quite comfortable. However, the price seemed a bit high for what was offered. The service was decent, but some additional amenities like room service or tours would have enhanced the experience. The location was convenient, just a short walk to the beach, but the beach itself was not the cleanest. The dining experience with grilled dishes was enjoyable, although the prices were a bit steep. Overall, it was a decent stay with some room for improvement.

The rooms were clean and super comfortable, and the staff was incredibly friendly. The only downside was the limited dining options for breakfast.

The hotel is situated right across from the beach, offering easy access to the famous yet somewhat unkempt sandy shores. The rooms, newly renovated with a nice bathroom and a convenient kitchenette, were spotlessly clean and provided basic facilities. The service, though lacking some amenities, included room service, dry cleaning, and housekeeping. The location provides a beautiful view from the terrace of the waters and a small dining area in the kitchen. The dining experience, while satisfactory in serving pastries, could be more diverse. The facilities were modern and well-maintained, ensuring a comfortable stay.
