8.4/10 Very Good! (512 reviews)

From the moment we arrived at the hotel, we were warmly welcomed by a lovely lady who assisted us with all the formalities. Our room was in excellent condition with a beautiful sea view and was cleaned daily. We thoroughly enjoyed the breakfast throughout our stay. The swimming pool and Jacuzzi were fantastic, and we also spent some relaxing time at the bar. I would like to thank the staff, who always greeted us with a warm smile, making our stay even more enjoyable. The only improvement I would suggest is better signage to the reception. While it’s fairly obvious, it can be a bit confusing. We spent some time figuring it out, especially since the automatic door took a while to open.
