Reviews and Ratings
Staying in the villa gives a unique feeling as if you've rented your own villa, but there are other guests sharing the same space. The location, often referred to as 'the new hotel,' requires driving to reach the rooms and breakfast area. Booking a sea view room is highly recommended for a better experience, and the shower in the room is excellent.
The hotel gives a mixed impression. The rooms are dated, yet signs of updating can be seen around the hotel. The location is a bit secluded, making it necessary to drive to reach the room and breakfast area. The ambiance resembles renting a villa, with other guests sharing the same space. The noisy 90's air conditioning is a downside.
The hotel is twinned with a hotel across the valley and features spacious rooms with a king-size bed and a large shower room. However, the air conditioning is noisy and dated. The service was friendly and accommodating, offering robes from the spa and assistance with various needs. The location is central and quiet, close to the beach and local restaurants. The dining experience is satisfying, especially for breakfast, and the facilities are well-kept.
