I had mixed feelings about my stay at this hotel. While the rooms were spacious and had beautiful sea views, the service felt inconsistent and the dining experience was lacking. The location was peaceful, offering a nice retreat, but the limited buffet hours and repetitive menu left much to be desired. Additionally, the high bar prices were a bit off-putting.

My experience at the hotel was quite mixed. On one hand, the spacious rooms and peaceful location with beautiful sea views made for a relaxing retreat. However, the inconsistency in service, particularly during busy times, and the limited dining options, left a lot to be desired. While I appreciated the good quality spa services, the overall dining experience fell short, especially with the early closing time of the buffet. Be prepared for limited options if you're staying for longer periods.
