    It is about 10-15 min walk from sea front and town and I wouldn't want to walk back after dark on my own.

    The staff were so friendly and helpful. We arrived in late, after the reception is usually closed but we told them in advance and they kindly stayed late to let us in. Rooms were spacious and comfortable and had balconies attached. Breakfast was good; continental but cooked eggs (scrambled, fried or omelette) and bacon available too. Also had fruit, cold meats, smoked salmon, avocado and tomato, croissant, pastries, pain-au-chocolat etc. One of our party used the spa and found it excellent. There is a michelin star restaurant attached and another restaurant which serves lunch and dinner.

    Suggestions: Water in rooms needed - we were given some when we asked - rooms a little dated in decor but fine - there needs to be separate hot water for tea at breakfast as it’s only from coffee machine and tastes a little of coffee

    Clean and.modern restaurant and exterior The menu and breakfast Plenty of private parking Friendly staff

    Although a very excellent place and staff were superb the one thing you need is smart TVs in your room so people can watch a bit of tv if relaxing in their rooms I like to watch current affairs and news and was told of multiple channels that didn’t work with the current set up if you had smart TVs linked the internet you could access things far more easily

    Being local to myself and wife it was very handy to go to.

    nothing on the hotel, but walking from and to the hotel at night can give you an uncomfortable feeling as some streets are not lighted at all.

    The hotel offers a lot options and services is located not far away from the beach but just enough to make it more calm. Free parking (enough space), enjoyable entrance, great pool and inside wellness, great restaurants. We stayed 4 nights and the reception desk workers impressed us the most. Always open for a chat, advice, help etc. We really loved that (thanks so much again)!!

    Some areas were looking a little worn/tired. Our patio area, although large, had very dried up plants. Some of the sunbeds had worn cushions and paintwork in some areas was peeling. Just needs a little tlc. Also the tables outside weren't cleared very quickly and so wasps were appearing.

    A 10min walk from the beach with a Lidl supermarket enroute. A lovely pool area with comfy sunbeds. The staff were really friendly and helpful. Food in the restaurant was great as was breakfast

    Pillows 😅😅😅

    FANTASTIC, good location, quiet. Clean, modern, single room large with private terrace had 2 x sunbeds, table and chairs, excellent. Only stayed for 1 night so did not eat at hotel, however I have heard that the food is excellent and both restaurants were full in the evening with people from the surrounding area so goes to show must be popular. Breakfast was lovely but the best part of the stay was the friendliness and helpfulness of the staff 10 out of 10. I would definitely stay at this hotel again and recommend it to others. A big Thank You 👍👍👍

    The air-conditioning could have been a little better. I think the filter needs to be changed in such a hot country.

    We enjoy the quiet atmosphere of the hotel. The staff are helpful and friendly.

    I would have used the spa facilities but the writing on brochure was much to small to read. Should have been pre warned about restaurant and booking, as fully booked for meal after me got there and closed completely next day.

    Clean, tidy nice looking hotel
