    difficult location
    expensive drinks

    The location was quite difficult to access, causing frustrations during our stay. I was disappointed with the bar staff, who seemed more focused on charging high prices rather than providing good service. I ordered two small beers, thinking I would receive a good deal, only to end up with two expensive bottles that were not what I expected.

    great location
    friendly staff
    squeaky bed
    outdated amenities
    noise disturbance

    The location is fantastic, just a stroll away from the beach. Friendly staff made everything feel welcoming, and I particularly enjoyed the yogurt served at breakfast. the room had a squeaky bed that disrupted my sleep, and while the amenities were clean, they appeared a bit outdated. Loud children running around at all hours detracted from any chance of relaxation.

    charming gardens
    peaceful atmosphere
    inviting decoration
    squeaky beds
    restful night

    The charming gardens around the pool were lovely for relaxing, making it feel so peaceful and inviting, like stepping into my favorite storybook.

    Squeaky beds made for a less restful night.

    poolside breakfast
    beautifully maintained gardens
    personalized service
    squeaky bed
    sleep disruption

    The stay was pleasant, especially enjoying breakfast by the pool where the waiter memorized our coffee order, adding a personal touch to our mornings. The peace of the beautifully maintained gardens around the pool provided a perfect spot for relaxation. the bed in our Economy Double Room wasn't very comfortable, which did affect our sleep quality. Still, the overall atmosphere was inviting and made for a nice escape.

    tranquil atmosphere
    beautifully maintained gardens
    easy access
    fluctuating hot water
    shower issue

    I appreciated the beautifully maintained surrounding gardens that provided a tranquil atmosphere, perfect for relaxation and enjoying a good book in peace. The easy access to the pool area enhanced my experience, making it senior-friendly.

    Hot water in shower fluctuated too much.
