The hotel has an excellent location with easy access to a private beach, and the views from the rooms are fantastic. However, the service was lacking, especially in dining options and responsiveness to issues. The cleanliness was also a concern, which detracted from the overall experience.

I had a memorable stay at this resort, which boasts an incredible view of the sea from my room and a caring staff led by Sarah who truly made me feel at home. The private beach access is a fantastic bonus, and it's refreshing to find the Lighthouse Beach nearby, which is less crowded. However, the experience could be improved with more staff assistance and working intercoms in the rooms, as I often had to trek down to request services.
