I had a wonderful stay at this hotel! The location is perfect, just steps away from the Waterbar and near the beach. The rooms come with a kitchen and offer a beautiful view, but it was a bit quiet for my liking. The service was exceptional with great housekeeping and laundry services. I enjoyed delicious pasta at the restaurant, although I wish there were more dining options. The facilities were top-notch, making my stay comfortable and convenient.
