Everything about this place is great. The only down side is that there are no food options for vegans just fruit and potatoes for breakfast and none for the little restaurant on the first floor.

Incredible views of Lido Beach. Very nice staff. It’s rumored that this property is closing soon to become a more expensive luxury resort. The wonderful view will then cost much more money to enjoy.
