Un séjour exceptionnel ! J'ai passé un séjour vraiment agréable dans cet hôtel. La chambre était spacieuse, très propre et équipée de tout le confort nécessaire, y compris une literie de qualité et une salle de bain moderne. Le personnel était exceptionnellement accueillant, sympathique et toujours prêt à aider, ce qui a vraiment rendu mon séjour encore plus agréable. La décoration intérieure est élégante et chaleureuse. La localisation est parfaite, à proximité des principales attractions. Les équipements de l’hôtel, comme la piscine, la salle de massage, offrent un vrai plus pour se détendre. La cuisine proposée était également très bonne, avec des plats variés et savoureux. Enfin, le rapport qualité-prix est excellent. Je recommande vivement cet hôtel à tous ceux qui cherchent un endroit confortable, bien situé et avec un service irréprochable. J’y retournerai sans hésiter ! Merci a vous ! Hakuna matata !!!!!

Personnels très souriant et serviables. Manager très sympathique. L’hôtel est bien situé, la plage est à 3 min à pied. L’ambiance est très familiale. Les repas sont excellent, un grand bravo pour le chef ! Des soirées peuvent être organisé par l’hôtel du style la soirée BBQ que nous avons durant notre séjour qui était très bien.

Die Unterkunft ist sehr gut ausgestattet. In der Umgeben gibt es genügend Restaurants falls man mal auserhalb vom Hotel essen will. Das Meer liegt gleich 2minuten zu Fuss vor der Haustür. Das absolute Highlight ist das Personal. Ich war in der Low season dort und hatte das Hotel für einige Tage für mich alleine. Das Personal ist wirklich wie eine kleine Familie geworden, sehr offen, herzlich und immer stehts hilfsbereit.
