spacious room modern design excellent sunbeds

The room was spacious. the modern design included a swim-up pool and amazing views of the sea. the beach is quiet with great sunbeds. The beach bar has everything you need.

The hotel is built on a hill, so walking up is a little hard if you are older. The hotel will take you to your room in a golf cart after a phone call though.
