EXCELLENT STAY with TOP service!

sea view modern decor separate sinks fresh fruit

The location allowed SUPERB access to nearby attractions, with the beach just steps away. My second floor sea view room offered AMAZING views and featured modern decor. The large bed ensured restful sleep, and the bathroom had separate sinks, which proved very convenient. I REALLY appreciated the complimentary breakfast. It was good (I especially liked the fresh fruit!).

The television in my room was quite small, but I was out and about most of the time ANYWAY.

Beachfront Bliss!

quality linen friendly staff delicious seafood

I loved how close I was to the beach and all the shops. The hotel has lovely sized rooms and provides clean, fresh quality linen and towels. The staff are really friendly, especially the waiters, and the sea food is delicious with beautiful presentation. I devoured the butter croissants at breakfast. They were fresh!

The air conditioning in my original room wasn't working, so I was moved to a lower floor, though compensation was provided.

Rooms

The room included a large bed and a luxury bathroom, a delight! Rooms facing the sea offer balconies, so I could savor the fresh air. The corner suites feature a wide view of the coastline.
