Absolutely blown away by this incredible hotel experience! From the moment I arrived, the warm and friendly check-in set the tone for a perfect stay. There’s plenty of parking—both out front and even more around the back—making arrival stress-free. The location is unbeatable, set right on the beachfront with breathtaking views of the harbour walls and the open sea. Waking up to that view was simply unforgettable. The bar and restaurant areas are beautifully designed, creating a welcoming and stylish atmosphere. I enjoyed a delicious evening meal in the bar and an outstanding breakfast in the restaurant the next morning—both meals were top-notch in quality and service. The entire hotel was peaceful and immaculately kept, and every member of staff I encountered was friendly, helpful, and genuinely accommodating. Without a doubt, I’ll be returning—this place is a true gem!

Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities, room comfort

a bit disappointed

To get to the room we had to go stairs up and down, in narrow corridor with luggage. We had the impression it was in the cave... also it was not perfectly clean, espacially the breakfast table, the corridor. Actually the room itself was not too bad and calm, just less nice than in the pictures.
