    This hotel offers easy access to local amenities, located near a variety of shops and restaurants. the accommodation is within walking distance of the sandy beach, making it a great place for beach lovers to stay. Rooms are comfortable with all necessary amenities, and the breakfast served is good. Guests can also enjoy a refreshing dip in the swimming pool.

    Some of the staff members could improve their communication and customer service skills.

    Great location near the beach and a nearby supermarket. The hotel apartment was equipped with useful appliances for self-catering. Staff were communicative and supportive, always willing to offer assistance.

    Water supply was not always consistent, and there were issues with the shower valves. This was a hassle during my business trip.

    I was pleasantly surprised by my stay at this resort. The apartment I stayed in had everything I needed, including air conditioning in all rooms, a kitchenette, and a separate living area. The security was excellent, making me feel safe throughout my stay. The breakfast was delicious and the chef even brought it to my room, asking for my preferences each morning. The standard of the apartment exceeded my expectations and I could have happily lived there for months. And to top it all off, the price was incredibly affordable.

    the value for money was excellent. The prices were reasonable and affordable, especially considering the quality of service provided. Secondly, I appreciated the hotel's attention to detail. From the well-maintained rooms to the basic amenities available, it was evident that the hotel management took pride in providing a comfortable stay for their guests. Additionally, the location of the hotel, although not directly on the beach, was actually a positive aspect for me. It was situated in a quiet area away from the hustle and bustle, ensuring a peaceful and relaxing atmosphere. Lastly, the staff were exceptional. They were friendly, attentive, and always willing to assist with any queries or requests.

    All was great, nothing to complain about!

    I recently had a fantastic stay at a hotel in a calm area, a little far from the beach. The value for money was excellent, with reasonable prices and attention to detail. The staff provided great service and were very accommodating. The rooms were cozy, with the bed next to the sink, a hot instant shower, and air conditioning. The tiny WC added a charming touch to the overall experience. The breakfast was served with some variety, which was a pleasant surprise.

    All was perfectly fine, no improvements needed.
