Reviews and Ratings
The hotel offers a mix of positives and negatives. While the rooms were spacious, clean, and had comfortable beds, there were issues with noisy doors and an unpleasant balcony view. The food was average, but the peaceful sunbathing spots with grape vines and lemon trees were delightful. The water slides and pool were a hit with children, though some maintenance issues like rusty steps were noted. The presence of rifle shooting activities around the pool was a major concern for safety, making it a reason not to consider a return visit.
The hotel offers basic but comfortable rooms with a king-size bed and a sofa bed, featuring modern amenities. The location is a mixed bag, close to the sea with a bit of a quiet surrounding. Dining is served by the beach with varied options, and the overall facilities are satisfactory.
