good but the room was never cleaned - perhaps you have to ask - and the cocktails in the bar were a mixture rather than proper ones and it was near enough to the airport but I think I wish to be nearer the beach next time but overall still a good place with friendly staff to talk to and a pleasant stay

Beautiful hotel,spacious room and bathroom, excellent bedding, welcoming staff. We particularly enjoyed the swimming pool which was bigger than what we thought based on the pictures. The courtyard is lovely spacious. As onsite Parking was full when we checked in, the hotel lent us a discount card for a nearby parking which worked fine for us. Book parking ahead if you prefer to avoid walking. If I had one recommendation to make would be for the hotel to find a solution for guests “reserving” sunbeds. In the end, we could not use them.
