Our family had an amazing week at this hotel! The service was exceptional with friendly staff always ready to help us. The best part was definitely the pool and the little beach area, perfect for our kids to play. The rooms were clean and had a lovely view, but they were a bit outdated and pricey for what we got. A fantastic spot for families, we can't wait to return!
