"The customer service is excellent and our dinner/staff was excellent as well. Some additional shade and loungers in the pool area would have been better as it was too bright and no loungers for us to enjoy the space. Maybe paint the white walls blue so that it’s not so stark.

"Hotel is in the middle of nowhere. It is a slightly odd feeling in May because most of the place is deserted. The beach club wasn't open once and you are around a 25min walk in to the town.
