This hotel was very nice. It’s in a great and safe location. It’s a very family oriented hotel, which is wonderful, but we just didn’t know that was really one of their focuses. We were really hoping for something a bit smaller and quieter, but for one night it was very comfortable.

Located near Piazza Nardo - which has a nice sandy beach (added cost) and lots of dining options. Affiliated beach is a 10 min drive away but was worth the visit. Hotel was constantly being cleaned! The services at the spa were great.

We liked the location and the sun deck by the sea. The dining staff were friendly and accommodating. The room was spacious and clean. It was disappointing and inconvenient that parking was not included. The quality of the breakfast food was not very good; the hotel should offer fewer choices but with better quality. There were no ramps for ease of transporting luggage up to the reception desk and to the elevator. Poor signage to the pool, it was not easy to find it.
