    A few people from the cruise ships used our private facilities on the beach and they were very loud which spoilt the tranquillity.

    Excellent hotel with a really nice restaurant. The bedroom was really spacious, clean and felt luxurious. On arrival the reception gave us complimentary drinks which was really nice after a long drive. Staff were very friendly, especially Antonio who really looked after us. Definitely would recommend this hotel.

    The room that we were initially given was really small and too dark (only a small window facing another building) - Luckily they had another room of same rate across the hallway and we took that

    Staff quickly gave us a few options once we saw that the room we were initially given was far below our expectations

    I booked the same room type (beachfront) as our friends, we both also paid the same amount of $. However, their room was MUCH nicer and bigger. Be aware that the photos primarily used for the beachfront are for the larger/nicer room. There really should be separate rates for each of these rooms, I felt rather ripped off. You get a beach bag with towels in it. The towels are okay, but the bags are very dirty and disgusting, they should wash them or not use them at all. We had to return towels 2 times because the clean ones given smelled horribly of mildew/wet dog.

    The location can’t be beat! The beach club has very nice beds with great servers. You’re on the nicest part of the beach, clean with very calm water. I appreciated the daily housekeeping, they did an excellent job.

    Smal room, view out of the room.

    Nice restaurant and staff. Nice location and delicious food. Rooms are smal, view out of our room was not nice. But great to stay directly at the beach. Sun beds and good shadow available.

    The lock of my room did not work and it took 2 days to get it fixed. There were also no hand towels when we arrived and it took 1 night to get the to supply us with old ones. The room is a bit small

    Everything is within a walking distance. The town is very cozy and calm. There are great choices for breakfast, lunch and diner. The Hotel restaurant is really good with the variety of options. And it is the only hotel with a beach of it's own and they give priority to the guests. Even when the cruise ships arrived it was a bit fun.

    Our room was on the street level and almost every morning between 6-7am the local workers started shouting and singing on the street corner which made sleeping longer impossible. This of course was not the hotels fault but it did make our stay some what less pleasant then it would have otherwise.

    Great location on the main street and a short walking distance of beaches, bars, restaurants. Rooms very comfy and bigger then we expected. Staff was helpful and made us feel welcome.

    The cushions on the beach chairs hadn't been brought in during the storm so they stayed wet most of the next day which is the only sunny day we had there. We had an ocean-facing room with a balcony but there weren't chairs on the balcony. There were 2 chairs in the room that we moved out there. The smart tv and internet didn't work. I even had 2 tech-savvy young adults with me and we couldn't ever get any options on the tv which was a bummer since it stormed the first day and evening we were there. I thought it may have been the storm but even after the weather cleared up neither worked. It was probably because so many guests were trying to use it. I also wish the beach club area was open later than 6pm. Overall this was still a really good place to stay. Our room was pretty pricey but you have to pay more to get perfection on the beach.

    The location is great. The hotel is really nicely decorated with great atmosphere. I really liked the style and the indoor/outdoor feel but on stormy days the open-air area of the hotel that you use to get to the restaurant isn't as convenient.

    The floor room was a bit dirty when I arrived, I could feel the sand on my feet but the next days it was well cleaned

    This place is perfectly located in front of the beach, the bed was so comfortable and it was so easy to relax. The place was a bit expensive for the days I was there but it was worth not having to pay for the "beach club" and to be in front of an area with little sargasso. Beautiful view!
