Reviews and Ratings
I absolutely loved my stay at this hotel! The location was superb, right on the beach with a lively atmosphere. The rooms were cozy and had stunning views, but I wished the bathroom had better ventilation. The service was top-notch, especially with the convenient shuttle service available. The dining options were just right for my taste, with shareable appetizers being a highlight. The facilities were great overall, but there were minor issues with the paid shuttle service and tours.
