Reviews and Ratings
I had a lovely stay at this resort, enjoying the clean and spacious rooms with stunning views. The location is unbeatable, right next to the beach, which made my days even better. However, the dining options could use improvement, especially for breakfast. The facilities, especially the pool, were great for relaxation, but the Wi-Fi being extra was a bit of a disappointment.
I had a great stay at this resort with stunning views of the beach. The room was spacious and clean, making my stay very comfortable. The staff was accommodating, which made for a pleasant experience. However, the dining options were somewhat limited, and I was hoping for more variety at breakfast. The facilities, especially the pool area, were enjoyable but could use a bit more attentiveness in maintenance.
This resort is truly a gem, situated in a peaceful area and just a short stroll from the beach. The rooms are spacious and modern, with breathtaking views. While the dining experience was enjoyable with fresh local products, I wish there were more variety at breakfast. The amenities were top-notch, making for a relaxing stay. However, be aware that Wi-Fi is an extra cost, which can be a bit frustrating.
I had a relaxing stay at this resort, with clean and spacious rooms and a lovely pool area that was well-maintained. The beach was just a short walk away, making it super convenient for sunny days. However, I found the dining options a bit lacking, especially at breakfast. Even though it felt like a great value overall, I was disappointed that Wi-Fi wasn't included and needs to be paid for separately.
My stay at the resort was quite enjoyable overall. The rooms were spacious and well-kept, offering a comfortable retreat after a day at the beach. The staff was attentive, making my experience feel personal and welcoming. However, I found the dining options to be somewhat limited, especially for breakfast. The amenities like the pool were nice, but they could use more variety. Overall, it's a good place if you're looking for a relaxing beach getaway.
