Awesome place to stay
Awesome hotel. Spacious rooms. Amazing selection of breakfast. Staff is very nice. Beach is literally 10 minutes walk from the hotel. Only thing is, it’s away from the city center and have to call Uber for everything if you are not driving. We loved our stay in this hotel.

Best hotel
Absolutely amazing experience all the way from check in through to check out. We had an early flight and they let us check in early from 11am and even decorated our room. The hotel restaurants and bar had friendly and helpful staff that were always around to help and the food was AMAZING. The walk to the beach was peaceful and beautiful as well. The overall stay was one of the best I’ve ever had and I definitely recommend this hotel to everyone.
