Absolutely amazing in every way. Lovely pool side seating with lots of different nooks. Pool Assistants were very attentive as was the lifeguard. Spotlessly clean. Prosecco with breakfast a massive plus! Plenty of choice to eat and bedrooms very stylish and comfortable. Great location about 20 minute walk from the centre but lots of lovely restaurants nearby. Will definitely come back.
