I absolutely loved my stay at this hotel! The location was unbeatable, right by the beach and surrounded by fantastic restaurants. The rooms were spotless and cozy, and the staff couldn't have been friendlier. However, the dining options were a bit lacking. The pool area was a great place to unwind. The price was reasonable, but having to pay extra for Wi-Fi was a minor inconvenience.
