"This is a beautiful hotel in a great location.
On arrival Delphine at reception was very warm,friendly and helpful. He greeted us warmly each day. The other reception staff were also wonderfully kind and helpful.
The room was sparkling clean. The cleaners work particularly hard to maintain the cleanliness of the rooms daily.
Janeth from the dining hall greeted us with a warm smile every morning that we went for breakfast. There is a great breakfast selection but will be slightly limited for those who are vegan.
The pool isn’t huge but didn’t feel small either. Even with multiple families, there was enough space for everyone to have fun and play. I would say, they could do with having a few more sun loungers though."
"We really enjoyed staying there. We ate the breakfast and it was good.
I don't know what is technically eco friendly except maybe they don't wash your towels every day unless you ask.
The location is excellent since it was a short walk to the beach and most of the walk was walking across the area of land to get to the beach. Tons of activities nearby that are extremely fun. And there is more beach to the town than the first glimpse from walking over that you see.
Sure not a five star hotel, but reasonable in price and worth more than the price"
