Fantastic location by the beach . Lovely spot for a relaxing holiday . We were the only English In the hotel but had a wonderful time chatting to folk from all around Europe .

The bar was open till midnight with a great range of drinks on the all inc package . The pool areas were super with very comfortable sun beds but we preferred the beach which also had these . We will be back .
