Hidden gem right on the beach with 5 star access
Pros:

The breakfast was delicious with many offerings each day. No need to repeat meals. The custom egg or omelette station was a nice to have options there too. At least two juices and hot coffee were available each day too.

Cons:

Having more hooks or a space to use hangers and hang clothing would have been very appreciated in addition to having a stool or bench to keep luggage off of the floor.

Das Hotel liegt direkt am Strand mit direktem Strandzugang
Pros:

Die Lage ist sehr gut, kleines Hotel direkt am Strand. Das Frühstück war sehr lecker, aber in einem anderen Hotel.

Cons:

Die Zimmereinrichtung ist mangelhaft, kein Schrank, nicht einmal eine Ablage für irgendetwas. Das einzige neben dem Bett war ein Stuhl. Das Zimmer mit Aussicht war der Blick auf die laute Strasse.

Superbt läge precis vid stranden. Fin gräsyta med palmer, lediga solstolar och bar (med bra mat).
Pros:

Mycket bra frukostbuffé på det större grannhotellet (samma ägare).

Cons:

Det saknades bra klädförvaring (garderob, galgar) på rummen.

Empfehlenswert
Pros:

Das Hotel besticht durch die Lage am Strand. Der Garten mit seinen großen Palmen ist zum Strand hin gelegen. Das Frühstück im schräg gegenüber gelegenen Schwesternhotel lässt kein Wünsche offen. Es gibt eine große Auswahl an warmen Gerichten, Eier in allen Variationen, Süßes und Obst.
Nettes Personal, gutes WLan, leistungsstarke Klimaanlage.

Cons:

Die Größe der Zimmer und die Ausstattung der Bäder variieren stark. Es gibt Zimmer zur Straße; die sind wirklich laut. Auf ein Zimmer zum Garten achten! Wir haben uns trotzdem wohlgefühlt.

L’hôtel est génial !
Pros:

L’hôtel est super bien située. La plage est très sympa. On peut bénéficier de la piscine de l’hôtel Diria-la piscine est immense et superbe. Le petit déjeuner est exceptionnel. Le personnel, Pamela, est très accueillante. C’est un vrai plaisir de séjourner à cet hôtel. Chambre est spacieuse, l’hôtel donne les serviettes de plages, très pratique. La vie est splendide.

Cons:

Tour à été parfait.

Pros:

The staff was so kind and helpful. Being right on the beach- do I need to say more? Also, having the amenities from the neighboring resort made being there with a kiddo even easier.

Cons:

Nothing. Loved it all.

Nice location, quaint but over priced
Pros:

Hotel location was good. Breakfast at the sister property was very good. The grassy garden area was nice by the beach.

Cons:

Did not like the stairs going up to second floor. They were not spaced properly and felt dangerous. Did not like the weird bathroom. Sink was so small, and there was always a bad smell in it. The air conditioning was loud.
We paid a high price per night and it was rated at a 8.7 so we did expect better.

Nettes Hotel in guter Lage
Pros:

Sehr zentral und direkt am Strand gelegen, tolle Strandbar mit nettem Personal

Cons:

Das Zimmer war etwas unkomfortabel, das Personal an der Rezeption wirkte manchmal etwas unmotiviert. Zum Frühstück musste man etwa 350 Meter in ein anderes Hotel gehen.
