Superb waterfront hotel with friendly and attentive service
Pros:

We came with our two older daughters and loved the location close to the beach and the old town with its many shops and restaurants. Even though one is so close to everything, due to its location above the beachside promenade, you can retreat to the terrace and pool area and still see the ocean without being amongst the crowds.
The breakfast buffet had everything you could wish for and the food was fresh and delicious. Also, the staff was always so friendly and helpful - whether at the reception, the concierge, or the cleaning or breakfast staff. A special thank you to Fernando who took good care of us at breakfast and the lady cutting the fresh fruit who always greeted us when we stopped at her station. Finally, the beds and pillows were really comfortable, so we slept incredibly well.

Cons:

It would have been helpful to have a price list in the room for the items in the mini-bar.
