“What strikes me most is the location, far enough from Skala to be peaceful, but still close to beaches and restaurants. I appreciate that many rooms come with sea views and kitchenettes-a practical touch. Although some find the breakfast selection limited, the pool area seems to be a consistently praised feature.”

many sunbedsgood barfood varietybroken doorhot airbroken blinds

The pool was really good with plenty of sunbeds. bar service was good. breakfast each morning was amazing. I found a vast variety of food to choose from.

the inside door of the fridge was broken and had no holder, so i could not store water in the door. the air conditioning pumped out really hot air. it was impossible to enjoy the balcony. i found that the blinds did not work and i could not roll them up.
