"Beautiful hotel if your aim is to just flip flop around, lounge by the pool and soak up the sun and smell the surrounding pine trees. Think little lizards, pine cones and pina coladas.
We had an upstairs room which had the most beautiful view. All the rooms face out onto the sea, and you get a beautiful light over the water in the evening. The balcony’s are mostly shaded too which is a good thing, it helps to keep the rooms cool.
You can hire bikes (€14 / half day) and cycle across the island to the main town quite easily, around 30 mins and very flat.
Breakfast was €25pp which we thought was quite pricey, so we decided to make the most of the little fridge in the room and keep some fruit and small supplies for breakfast instead.
The lunch menu is a bit limited, mostly sharing / charcuterie style boards, but enjoyable nonetheless for a light lunch. The restaurant dinner menu was more substantial and very enjoyable, and the cocktail mixologist was superb, very calm, collected and made some excellent cocktails for us.
Finally, the ‘beach’ is only really a beach at low tide and the water is extremely shallow when at mid-tide. At high tide the beach completely disappears which may put you off, but we were more than happy with the large spacious and clean pool right next to the beach with the ‘lazy river’ to enjoy too as a bonus, complete with sea air. Overall we loved this stay as a couple for our anniversary, and would definitely recommend it."
"The room was clean and welcoming. Large enough, with a décent size desk.
The staff was helpful and knowledgeable.
The room was on the ocean side. There is a small balcony with small table and 2 chairs to enjoy breakfast or a drink watching the beach and ocean that are just across the street on a promenade.
I did not try the spa, but enjoyed the relaxing pool.
The hotel is right on one end of the promenade. Long walks along the beach on either side: promenade and wilder walk along the coast on the other side."
"We had a room at the back of the hotel in a separate building. It was clean, well maintained and comfortable. You walk across the road to a lovely beach, and there is car parking. Short walk to the village centre. Would happily stay there again."
"A very popular hotel for sure with spacious rooms, great Wifi, and a lovely pool, jacuzzi, sun lounger area. The reception and staff were excellent and this hotel deserves its high review rating. Plenty of secure parking which is a must for me. There is a restaurant on site for continental breakfast and main meals but we did not use so not able to rate. The location means transport is required but it should be mentioned there are excellent cycle paths adjacent to the road. "
