"The staff is absolutely wonderful—helpful, polite, and attentive without being overly formal or intrusive. It is rare to find such genuinely high-quality service. The ocean-water swimming pool is simply stunning, probably the most beautiful one I have ever seen. We had a truly lovely stay."

8/10 Good
"Excellent choice for breakfast. The setting and location is wonderful - sitting round the pool, looking towards the sea. Right next to the cute small town with some lovely restaurants. Hotel of a good standard with equally nice comfy rooms. Would have given a 5 out of 5 apart from on occasion, not enough staff on at the bar pool area in the day sometimes and some of the sunbeds are past their best. Would definitely stay here again."
