quiet getaway

pool design polite staff easy loungers

the pool area had a beautiful design. every staff member was polite also helpful. the small size kept the hotel quiet during the day, so finding loungers by the pool was always easy.

i found the drinks at the bar was quite pricey. this added up over my stay. this would be better with lower prices.

The breakfast quality was disappointing. I noticed cheap products and a lack of healthy options. The egg station was questionable because the omelette mixture was in a plastic bottle.

The room was large with air conditioning and a balcony. The breakfast offered many choices. The location is near the beach.. just a few minutes walk.

The pool area needs more sunbeds and parasols. Many parasols looked broken. Mattresses should have a topper, otherwise they felt lumpy.

Satisfactory Stay Near the Beach

fresh orange juice spacious room dark corridor limited drawer

The breakfast offered a nice variety. I liked the option for eggs made to order and the fresh orange juice. The room was spacious with a large bed and a balcony. I am thankful for that.

The corridors were quite dark. I found it difficult to locate the light switches initially. I also noticed limited drawer space in the room. It was hard to keep things tidy because of this.
