Lovely quiet & calm hotel that is very modern & welcoming. The staff are really friendly, food is fantastic & the option of a different offering at the pool bar is really good. Would definitely stay here again.
Alojamiento ideal en primera linea de playa. El bungalow con vistas al mar es increíble, super bien decorado y con una terraza espectacular.
Desayuno muy variado y completísimo. El staff super atento en todo momento. Además, organizan actividades complementarias todos los días.
El único pero es que los precios del restaurante son un poco elevados en comparación con los de alrededor. Igualmente, todo fue genial.
Fantastiskt fint hotellkomplex precis vid den långa vita stranden, två jätte fräscha poolområden och en restaurang som serverade jättegod mat, både till frukost lunch och middag. Frukost menyn var kanon., kan varmt rekommendera avokado toasten. Otroligt gästvänlig personal, kom gärna tillbaka.
Très bel hôtel (décoration de bon gout) donnant sur la plage, piscine agréable, transat confortable, personnel attentionné et très aimable
Il faut aimer le calme : rien à faire à part des balades sur la plage (qui est magnifique)
