My stay at this hotel was truly memorable! It offers fantastic views and a great proximity to the beautiful beach, perfect for anyone looking to relax by the water. I found the rooms to be spacious and clean, providing excellent comfort for our family getaway. However, the dining service experiences were a bit delayed and could use improvement. Overall, the value for money, especially during the holiday season, was a highlight of our stay.

While the hotel shows promise with its newness and polite staff, my stay was marred by significant issues like a missing booking, lack of towels, below-average breakfast, overcharging, and unserviced rooms. However, the location offers easy access to the beach, so there's potential to enhance this experience.

This hotel has its ups and downs. On one hand, the spacious villa we stayed in was delightful and really fit our group's need for fun and relaxation. On the other hand, the cleanliness of the place left much to be desired, and it was quite a trek to get to the beach, which was a bit of a letdown. Despite this, the overall atmosphere and the unique experiences made our stay enjoyable.

My stay at this resort was absolutely enjoyable! The space was very enjoyable, and the atmosphere added to our experience. I found the beach to be just a short walk away, which was perfect for us. Although I loved the charming location, the dining service fell a bit short with some delays. It still offered great value for our money overall.

I had high hopes for this hotel since it's new, but unfortunately, my experience fell short. While the staff were polite, I encountered a series of frustrating issues such as an unserviced room and a breakfast that did not meet expectations. That said, the hotel has potential as it has a nice modern design and is set in a beautiful location.
