    We had a wonderful stay at this place. The location is absolutely stunning, right along the sea shore. The views were breathtaking, especially during sunrise and sunset. The room service was top-notch, with fast delivery of breakfast and other meals. The staff went above and beyond to fulfill all our requests and were always helpful. The hotel also offers a wide range of amenities including a spa and wellness center, swimming pool, and live entertainment. The rooms were spacious and comfortable, with all the necessary amenities like ironing facilities, air conditioning, and a mini-bar. We also loved the beautiful terrace and the soundproofed rooms, ensuring a peaceful and relaxing stay.

    Had a great weekend in this hotel. the breakfast was delicious and fresh, with plenty of options to choose from. the swimming pool was well-maintained and a great spot to relax in the sun. the location was perfect, surrounded by plenty of restaurants and shops. Plus, the hotel was just a short walk from a beautiful park.

    The rooms were a bit outdated and could use some renovations. there was some noise from the street outside which could be a bit bothersome at night.

    The hotel is conveniently located near some shops and other amenities. it is quite far from any nice places, about a 10 to 15 minutes drive away. the rooms are adequate, although some have a musty smell and need updating. Wi-Fi is available in some areas but may have a weak signal. the staff is friendly and helpful.

    Some aspects of the hotel, such as the outdated bathroom and stained carpet in the rooms, need improvement.

    Spent Easter weekend at this hotel. The view from the room was stunning with the beach just steps from the hotel. The pool area was lovely and offered a great atmosphere. Good cocktails – particularly liked the signature one. Location wise, it was pretty central to all the entertainment.

    The hotel interior was outdated and run-down in need of a facelift. The overall experience was undermined by the apathetic staff.
