Amazing views and friendly service

friendly staff comfy bed

The staff were very friendly. They even upgraded our room for us upon arrival. The room was clean. The beds were comfy. A pianist played classic well-known songs during breakfast in the dining room (a really nice touch). The sea views enhanced the magical experience, i will definitely return.

The room i booked was not like the photos advertised. I was disappointed. The room was small and very tired looking, the layout.
