7.8/10 Good! (167 reviews)

It’s a nice beachfront property but the beach is not suitable for swimming or bathing, the sea water is not clean as the waste water from the land comes and mix in the sea. Hotel rooms a very tired, need a good clean and the furnitures need replacing The staff are very friendly and helpful and it’s beautifully landscaped and maintained
