We had a lovely stay and enjoyed the location and hotel very much.
Pros:

The room was lovely with a beautiful view of the beach from the window. It had a good size bathroom and nicely set out coffee/tea making facilities and small bar fridge. The bed was very comfortable.
Dining options in the hotel and Totti's restaurant were excellent. All staff we encountered were friendly, helpful and efficient.
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here.

Cons:

A heavier block out curtain or pull down blind would have improved the darkness of the room for sleeping and a switch to be able to select bedside lights would be beneficial.
