“The hotel's location across from the beach and the plentiful dining options nearby are definite advantages; plus, I noted positive feedback about the helpful staff, especially Florenzia. From what I gather, it's a relaxed place, with separate pools for adults and children, plus themed dinners to add variety. Overall, it seems like a solid choice for a family beach holiday.”

Solid Beach Stay
superb locationnearby restauranteasy access
Location was superb. Shops are outside the hotel. Beach is close with easy access. Plenty restaurants are available nearby of every kind. Bus stops right outside were great for going to the marina. Taxi rank outside also helped.
I thought some areas of the poolside need a little looking at if you are walking or have sight problems.
