    We woke up to the sound of the waves and walked just a few steps to a beautiful sandy beach. the location is perfect for beach-lovers who want to relax in a quiet atmosphere. the staff was very attentive and welcoming, and the breakfast was a great way to start the day. We enjoyed the gym, swimming pool, and tennis court, and the garden was the perfect spot to have a drink in the evenings. the only slight downside was some wifi connectivity problems, but the friendly staff did their best to resolve the issue.

    Liked the location, within walking distance to two beautiful beaches and nearby restaurants. enjoyed the cleanliness and styling of the accommodations. the staff was helpful and always available when needed.

    Disliked the off-season feel of the surrounding area, with limited restaurant options and not many people around. the lack of lighting made it challenging to see apartment numbers at night.

    I had a great stay at this hotel. The location was amazing, just a short walk to a beautiful sandy beach. The hotel facilities were top-notch, including a great gym, tennis court, and pool area. The staff was friendly and helpful, and the breakfast each morning was delicious. The cleanliness of the hotel was also impressive.

    Everything was spot on.

    Loved the location, being within walking distance to the beach and local restaurants was really handy. The breakfast was delicious and had a great range of options to choose from. The gym was well-equipped, making it easy to do my workout while on a business trip.

    Although the gym was great, the pool was quite shallow which might not be ideal for those who want to do laps. , the checkout process was a bit slow and could use some streamlining.

    We had an amazing time at this luxurious 4-star hotel! The location was perfect, just a short walk from the beautiful sandy beach. The staff were friendly and always willing to help. The apartments were spacious and stylish, providing a comfortable and relaxing stay. The facilities were top-notch, with a well-equipped gym and a tennis court for some fun activities. The breakfast buffet was delicious, offering a variety of options to suit different tastes. We couldn't have asked for a better place to stay for our vacation!

    That the pool could be deeper, but it was perfect for families with young children. With its prime location, excellent service, and impressive facilities, this hotel is highly recommended for families looking for a luxurious and comfortable stay.
