Vu extraordinaire, gens acceuillant, mais plage décevante pour la marche à cause des coquillages.
Pros:

Les déjeuners sont extra et le personnel très attentif, la propreté est très bien. Le hall est très spacieux et bien entretenue. Même les femmes de ménages sont attentives à nos besoins.

Cons:

aucun stationnement si tu vas en auto, la plage laisse à désirez car on ne peut pas prendre de marche vu la quantité de petit coquillage cassé, et il n'y a pas de place pour les gens de l'hotel sur la plage, on doit payé. La piscine nous a décu...., elle ne reflette pas les photos et c'est le seul endroit qui ne semblait pas être bien entretenue.

The breakfast buffet was great, lots of choices, Location, right on the beach. It was cold during our stay so it was cold and windy on the beach side but we enjoyed the view.

Cons:

They could use a new updated elevator.

The only thing I liked about my stay was location and the clean room was extremely disappointed with the pool and breakf
Pros:

The rooms were clean and I loved beach view, hotel is in good location

Cons:

There pool is through a restaurant, if I’m honest this really upset my holiday. We only booked for two nights. If we like the hotel we would’ve stayed the rest of our holiday. We ended up moving to a different hotel. Also lobby bar is very dead. And I did not like the breakfast at all.

Really enjoyed my stay and would recommend the hotel.
Pros:

I really enjoyed my stay. The location is excellent, on the beach and next to the old town, a tunnel takes you from the beach to the old town. The staff were really polite and helpful. Everything was really clean. The views from the bedroom balcony were excellent. The breakfast was good.
