Pros:

Sales del hotel directo a la playa. Las zonas comunes, piscina y restaurante muy bonitas y a pie de playa. Sólo con la playa tan bonita ya merecería la pena la estancia. Nos dieron una habitación mejor que la que habíamos elegido ya que están en obras

Cons:

Nuestra habitación estaba fuera del complejo al otro lado de la carretera y hay que subir más de 100 escaleras y una rampa lo cual hace que sea preferible escoger una habitación en la zona de la playa aunque no tengan vistas al mar.

Exelente para pasar con la familia
Pros:

La ubicacion es excelente, el staff muy profesional y colaborador. El restaurante muy bueno para desayuno y en general es un lindo lugar para visitar.

Podrian mejorar su menu para almuerzo y cena sobretodo para familias con hijos ya que hay pocas opciones buenas para niños. El area de baños de la piscina es muy limitado.
