"Lovely clean hotel. Room was lovely. Some areas eg around the pool and beach club require some updating. Staff very helpful especially Christina and Emilia in the executive lounge who couldn’t do enough to help. Even suggested great places for us to visit and helped with directions too.

"Fantastic see view. Great choice of wines in restaurant. Breakfast is fine. Nice walking area around. The only small issue is if you wish a sea view room, you have to accept the noise from beach toad (anyway not much disturbing if to close the balcony doors), but in this case you can choose a room with pool or city view. The staff is fine. In general good stay."
