I had a great stay at this hotel with its stunning location and friendly staff. The rooms were spacious and provided good privacy, but I did notice that the dining options could use some improvement. The pool area was beautiful and well-kept, making it a perfect spot to relax. Overall, it was a value-for-money experience, although Wi-Fi came at an extra cost.

I had a mixed experience at the hotel. The location is beautiful, but it could use some freshening up in the furniture department. The rooms were spacious and clean, although we did have a problem with muddy water contamination during our stay. On the bright side, the service was excellent, and the staff was super accommodating. While the dining was better than expected, I felt the location itself could be improved to enhance the overall experience.

However, the dining options left something to be desired, as the breakfast variety was quite limited. The service was a mixed bag; while some staff were super friendly, others at the reception could use a bit more training in customer service.

I had a lovely stay at this hotel, which benefits from a great location near the town center and accessible to local shops. The rooms were comfortable but in need of some updating, and the service was absolutely fantastic with friendly staff everywhere. However, the dining could have been improved with a better selection of fresh fruit at breakfast. Overall, it was a good experience for the price, despite some drawbacks.

The rooms were clean and functional, but the service left a bit to be desired, especially during check-in and check-out. The dining options had some highlights, but also a few disappointments, particularly with freshness. Overall, it’s good value for money but not without its quirks.

I stayed at this hotel and found it to be in a lovely location with a short walk into town and a quick ride from the airport. The rooms were spacious and had everything I needed, plus a nice garden area which accommodated our family well. Unfortunately, the service was lacking, and they didn't seem too eager to help, which was disappointing. Dining options were also on the expensive side, with limited variety. Overall, there are some great aspects but definitely room for improvement.

The hotel has some great features, particularly the clean and spacious garden pool bungalows that offer a non-smoking environment. However, my experience was marred by an allergic reaction to the pizza due to undisclosed ingredients. The staff was friendly and accommodating, though there were a few hiccups with service details. Overall, it’s a decent place but has room for improvement in communication.

My stay at the hotel was overall positive, with an amazing location near the beach and snorkeling spots.
