Our stay at the hotel had its ups and downs. The location was convenient, just a short walk to the beach and nearby shops. We found the rooms clean and spacious, which was a plus. However, some facilities could use improvement, especially the kitchen area that felt unkempt. Overall, it offered decent value for money, but there were some issues that detracted from the experience.

The hotel offers an excellent getaway with a truly picturesque setting. My apartment was spacious and well-furnished, featuring great amenities, and it was just a short stroll to the beach and local shops. While I loved the friendly and accommodating staff, the absence of a golf club was a letdown for me. Overall, it's a hidden gem that offers great value for money.

I had a really pleasant experience at this resort spa. The accommodation was spacious and comfortable, with a lovely pool and outdoor area for relaxation. It's conveniently located just a short walk to the beach and close to shopping. However, there were a couple of minor issues, like limited kitchen power points and some extra costs for additional supplies that could be improved. Overall, it was definitely a great value for money.

7.8/10

Our experience at the hotel was quite mixed. While the accommodations were spacious and we appreciated the pool and outdoor area, the initial check-in situation was stressful due to traffic and missing the office hours. The location was fantastic, being just a stone's throw from stores and only a short walk to the beach. However, the rooms were not quite what we expected considering the price, and we could hear noise from adjacent rooms.

Rooms

The room was spacious but overpriced for what it offered. We expected better soundproofing, as we could easily hear conversations from next door.
