I couldn't have asked for a better location with comfy sunbeds right on the beach. The room I had was functional, though a bit dated, and the staff were sometimes inattentive when it came to offering drinks. The dining options were average, but the setting was breathtaking.

My stay at the hotel was overall pleasant. The room I had, number 374, was a bit dated but functional. However, one night there was loud music coming from the bar until about 11 o'clock, which was a downside. The service was a bit inconsistent with the staff forgetting to offer drinks while lounging on the beach chairs. The location was amazing, with breathtaking views and very clean surroundings. The dining experience was okay, with lunch being satisfactory but limited options. The facilities were decent, offering the essentials.

I stayed in a garden room facing the sea but without a sea view. The room I got, number 374, was a bit dated but functional. There was some loud music from the bar one night until late, which was a bit inconvenient.
