Review summary

Essence Hotel Boutique is often praised for its stunning facilities, including a warm pool with jacuzzis open late for relaxation, and a lovely terrace. Guests rave about the breakfast, describing it as fresh and delicious with options for everyone; some also enjoy the rooftop bar, Space Monkey, which offers great views and sometimes features live music. The location is ideal, with beachfront bars nearby and only a short walk to the town centre.

I had the Double or Twin Room Sea View. The walk in shower was very good. The room included a nice balcony. I also appreciated the beach being very close.
The gym equipment looked a bit old.

The location was ideal. It was very close to the beach and shops! I found many restaurants nearby. The room had a coffee machine and a kettle. It was useful.
The breakfast service lacked flexibility. The set time was inconvenient! I wanted an earlier breakfast. The sauna operated for only one hour daily.
