Great location, very short walk to the beach. Hotel was lovely, well furnished and clean. Staff could have been friendlier, and location-wise there weren't too many restaurants to choose from.

Beautiful and well kept hotel. It’s equivalent to a high end hotel in Chicago or NY but a fraction of the cost. Beautiful area with plenty of walking paths and only a few meters to the beach.

Fabulous hotel but noisy guests

The hotel, the location and the staff were all really good. The only downside was the weekend we chose to go there happened to be when there was some motorbike convention. We were on the 5th floor with a sea view only to be woken at 7.30 each morning by revving motorbikes.
