I had a pleasant experience at the hotel with spacious and clean rooms, although the view from my balcony was not as expected-it faced the pool rather than the sea. The service was attentive and friendly, making my stay enjoyable. However, the dining options could use improvement, particularly in terms of variety, especially during late arrivals. Overall, it's a good value for a priced stay but with room for enhancement.

Overall, my stay at the hotel was delightful. I was pleasantly surprised by the spacious and clean room that had a lovely balcony. The location was perfect, offering tranquility while being just a short distance from the town. However, while the staff was lovely and accommodating, there were moments when the language barrier made communication a bit challenging. The dining experience was a highlight with some truly fabulous options, but I felt the variety was slightly lacking at times.

I had a mixed experience at this hotel. The rooms were clean and offered a nice view of the pool bar, but I was a bit disappointed as I thought I had booked an ocean view room. The staff was great and went out of their way to help during our stay. On the plus side, the location is excellent, being close to some lovely restaurants. However, the evening options for entertainment were limited, and it would have been great to have scooters available to explore the area more easily.

I had a pleasant stay at the resort spa, where the atmosphere was surprisingly tranquil and the facilities were overall quite clean and modern. The staff were friendly and made a genuine effort to ensure we were comfortable. However, I noticed that the dining options were somewhat limited, which was a letdown.
