Beautiful, comfortable stay, amazing staff and facilities.
Pros:

Hotel Lobby was recently re-decorated and it is fabulous. Clean, spacious, fabulous Bar, with lovely cocktails, and food was nice. The staff at reception, particularly Rocio were so helpful, nothing was too much to ask. All staff met were kind/friendly/welcoming. Breakfast was delicious, really varied. Sea view was fab. Highly recommend this hotel and would 100% return.

Cons:

Nothing to fault genuinely.

Beautiful views, clean, peaceful and relaxing.
Pros:

Beautiful pool area with luscious green grass, right on the beach. Friendly and helpful staff, delicious cocktails and food. Very clean room with beautiful views.

Cons:

We were disturbed a few times during the night by guests in the neighbouring rooms, so maybe sound proof the walls more.
