Séjour vraiment très agréable, dans un endroit paradisiaque.
Pros:

Situation exceptionnelle, cernée par l'océan .
Chambre avec une terrasse couverte et vue sur l'océan. Parfait! Très propre et fonctionnelle.
Nous avons diné et c'était assez moyen, par contre le petit-déjeuner est excellent.

Cons:

Le diner dans le bistro peut faire mieux. Le menu ne change pas tous les jours. La carte n'est pas top.Mais encore face à l'océan c'est un plus.

Spectacular!
Pros:

Fantastic experience! Rooms are big, confortable and with magnificent views to the ocean. Superclean and very polite employees. Breakfast is great and served in a fantastic restaurant with the best views. The architecture is amazing. Easy and close access to a wild beach. Nature is spectacular. Close to very interesting touristic natural beauties.

Cons:

Terrace with only 2 steel heavy chairs (probably due to strong winds). No family rooms (with 3 beds).

Atemberaubende Lage über dem Meer
Pros:

Die Lage direkt über dem tosenden Meer ist grandios und die Sonnenuntergänge sind kaum zu übertreffen. Im Hotel fühlten wir uns sehr willkommen, das Ambiente war gepflegt und die Atmosphäre war locker und überhaupt nicht steif. Unsere Junior-Suite war geräumig und komfortabel. Getränke aus der Minibar waren kostenlos. Als Willkommens-Gruss gab es Früchte und Gebäck. Sehr gutes Frühstück mit toller Aussicht auf das Meer. Wir haben das Nachtessen im Hotel sehr genossen. Die Gerichte waren frisch, schön angerichtet und schmeckten uns ausgezeichnet. Wir kommen gerne wieder.

Cons:

Für unseren sehr kleinen Hund mussten wir täglich Euro 40.— bezahlen. Das ist sehr viel, zumal weder eine Hundedecke noch Futterschalen zur Verfügung gestellt wurden.

Pros:

Fantastische Lage, qualitativ hochwertiges Frühstück, tolles und aufmerksames Personal.

Cons:

Das es keinen Pool gibt, das wussten wir. Man hatte unser aber erzählt, dass wir in den 3 km entfernten Health Club vergünstigt Zutritt haben. Dort wusste man nichts von so einer Vereinbarung und wir mussten 30 Euro zahlen pro Person.
Leider hat auch der Abfluss im Bad extrem gestunken.
