Reviews and Ratings
The hotel has a perfect location right opposite the beach, making it super convenient for sunbathing and dining options nearby. My room was spacious and had a lovely view, which I really appreciated. However, the breakfast could use a bit more variety and the Wi-Fi was only available for an extra fee, which was a bit of a letdown.
The hotel boasts a great location just opposite a small beach with free sunbeds, making it perfect for beach lovers. The rooms have stunning views and are quite spacious, but the service could be improved as it felt a bit understaffed at times. The dining options are decent but could use some variety. Overall, it's a good value for money, especially given its proximity to restaurants and other beaches.
I had a wonderful stay at this hotel, which is perfectly located just opposite the beach and near vibrant bars. The rooms were spacious and modern, with beautiful views. The staff members were friendly and helpful, making me feel welcome. However, the breakfast selection was a bit limited, and the pool area, while nice, could use a bit more upkeep. Overall, it's great value for money considering the location and amenities.
The hotel has a fantastic location, right on the south coast and just a short walk from the beach and numerous excellent tavernas. The rooms are spacious with stunning views, and overall, it feels like great value for money. However, I found the service to be a bit lacking at times, which slightly detracted from the experience.
I really enjoyed my stay at this hotel, mostly because of its wonderful location right by the beach and close to a bunch of great tavernas. The rooms were spacious and had a nice view, and I appreciated the inclusive breakfast. While the cleanliness was impressive and the staff was friendly, I found the Wi-Fi to be quite slow and not very reliable. Overall, it was a good value for money stay despite the few downsides.
