חוויה טובה ונעימה
Pros:

הסגנון של המלון, תחושה של בית עם אוירה של חופש, המיקום על הים עם המסעדה הצמודה.

Cons:

ניקיון חדרים נעשה אחה"צ - ערב ובחלק מהימים רק אחרי שביקשנו. זרם במקלחת חלש בשעות מסוימות ובבוקר לוקח המון זמן למים חמים להגיע. מטבח לא מספיק מאובזר, לא היו סכינים בכלל... סבון כלים הציעו לנו לקנות...

Pros:

המיקום מצוין! על החוף ממש ועשר דקות מחאניה

Cons:

החדר לא היה נקי, גם לאחר שביקשנו וניקו, עדיין הרצפה היתה מלאה חול. החדר בסיסי מאד, ללא שום תוספות. אפילו מכונת קפה אין.

Una piacevole vacanza con tutte le comodità
Pros:

La struttura è molto pulita e curata. A pochi passi dalla camera hai la spiaggia e per chi arriva in auto c’è un ampio parcheggio. Staff super disponibile!

Cons:

Non ho trovato nulla che non mi sia piaciuto. Un solo suggerimento: un forno microonde non sarebbe male 😇

100/10!! Amazing
Pros:

One of the best stays of my life! The hotel is beautifully located right next to a stunning beach, with several small bays nearby where you can always find a calm place even on windy days.

What made this stay truly exceptional was the staff — especially Voula from the reception. She is an absolutely wonderful person who not only solves every problem immediately, but also anticipates guests’ needs and helps with everything with genuine kindness and professionalism. She made our stay perfect.

The hotel was exceptionally clean, with daily housekeeping, and there is also a very useful shop on site with everything you may need during your holiday. Perfect place for families as well, with a beautiful park and large playground nearby.

A special mention also goes to the restaurant located on the hotel grounds. The staff there were absolutely amazing and created such a warm and welcoming atmosphere every day.

Pros:

Posizione con vista eccezionale, posto molto bello, camera con vista diretta sulla spiaggia, il rumore del mare sempre accanto

Cons:

La pulizia era molto approssimativa, le dotazioni della cucina totalmente insufficienti. Durante il soggiorno, malgrado gli sforzi e la comprensione del personale della reception, non abbiamo avuto acqua calda,
