Our stay at the resort was a mix of highs and lows. On the positive side, the location is truly unbeatable, just steps from the beach and surrounded by eateries. The apartment we had was spacious and great for our family. However, it was a bit dated, and the Wi-Fi barely worked during our time there, adding some frustration to our experience.

My stay was quite disappointing overall. The room had a strong chemical smell and was not very clean; it was unfortunate because I expected more. However, the location was nice, with proximity to the beach, which was a plus. I probably won’t be returning due to the cleanliness issues and overall discomfort during my stay.

I really enjoyed my stay at this hotel, especially the charming view of the beach right across the road and the spacious, clean apartments. However, I found that my apartment was quite dated and in need of some refurbishment, which detracted from the overall experience. The location was fantastic for long walks, with plenty of restaurants nearby, and the manager was very helpful with our needs.

5.0/10

My recent stay was far from pleasant. The apartment I stayed in was poorly maintained, leaving a lot to be desired. The location was decent, but the overall experience was overshadowed by the lack of professionalism from management and the condition of the facilities. It's a shame, as it could be a nice place with some improvements.

Rooms

The apartment was quite cramped, with a door that wouldn't close properly due to the bed size. The one air conditioning unit was too far from the bedrooms, making it uncomfortably hot.

The location could be great, but it needs renovations to truly shine. The heat from the external systems made it uncomfortable to spend time on the deck.

We had a fantastic stay at the resort! The apartment was incredibly spacious and well-equipped, and the staff were welcoming and helpful. The only downside was that it was a bit chilly at night, and we had to buy quilts for extra warmth. Overall, we were really happy with our experience.
