"Very nice property with a nice spa. Temperature control is an option as the air conditioning isn't available some times of year. So if you are there on a warm day you will have to hope the outside temperature drops enough to keep you cool. Restaurant was buffet and mediocre at best. I'd stay here ..."

Great location- great views, but small apartment
"Great location overlooking the beach. We booked a one bedroom panoramic apartment. The pictures online show a large terrace but in reality it’s much smaller and only fits two sun beds and a table squashed in. Although the apartment allows 4 people including the sofa bed, it would be really uncomfortable. ..."
