- Location is great right by the beach and nice restaurants Parking is ample and freeBeach chairs and bar is good (for a fee)- get a nice spacious section of the beach and complimentary sandwich at the barBreakfast was great- lots of selection of continental and barista drinks upon request.Grounds are pretty and cleanStaff are pleasant and helpful- I felt welcome and safe as a solo traveler.
- Great location, close to the beach and restaurants. The beach is very nice and the hotel offers sunbeds and umbrellas for acceptable conditions compared to others. Nice pool area.
- Location and proximity to the beach, shops and restaurants. Rooms are spacious and staff is very friendly.
Cons -
- The rooms are slightly dated, which isn’t a problem for me but the walls are not sound proof at all- I heard everything in the room next to me including toilet flush and snoring.Comforter on bed and pillows smelt a bit musty. Probably best to get fresh ones
- Rooms a little bit dark, noisy and with old furniture. The gym could also use an upgrade.
- Hotel’s sun-beds are located on a descendent dune, which makes only the first row convenient to use. Rows two and three are quite uncomfortable. Breakfast is very average.

very nice staff, quiet neighborhood, very good breakfast
My room was spacious, clean and access to the garden was nice for the evenings.
Had a very nice stay. Hotel is very close to the beach, supermarket and restaurants. Staff very friendly and helpful, especially the 2 receptionists. The rooms were cleaned every day. I would recommend this hotel as it was perfect for what we needed.
Rooms are in need of a little update here and there and we noted they have already started to change things in ours which is a positive. Also would have loved more variance in the morning drinks with the choice for juice as I don't drink tea or coffee.
We had an upstairs room which there are only a few of - they might be the premium ones. This offered us a little view of hillside and ocean instead of ground floor garden view. Bugs love my ankles, so I don't like the ground floor units, anyplace. Pool was amazing, beach area for reserved seating was fantastic. Very nice beach.
We has a view room - but ended up on ground floor with "garden view". We did upgrade and move to upstairs, thankfully it was available. It would have been difficult to stay in the garden view ground floor darker room.
Lovely place. Beautiful surrounding with treest and flowers. Very nice pool. Friendly and helpful stuff. Close to the beach, supermarket across the street.
Perfect location on a beautiful beach. Would highly recommend going out of season, we went in May and it was perfect!
Breakfast was continental and could have had a few more options but I think that’s just a Brit not being used to it!
What an amazing hotel and a wonderful bunch of staff! The location is perfect - by the beach with big choice of restaurants around the hotel as well as well stocked supermarket opposite.Rooms and garden reminded us luxury Caribbean hotels- quiet, beautiful garden on the front and the back of the room with bids keeping you company.Room was big and airy and had comfortable old fashioned cosiness about it. Bed was huge and comfortable and shower room is spacious.Breakfast gave plenty of choice and cooked omelettes of your choice is great.Staff went extra mile to make sure that we are comfortable and attended to all our needs.
Excellent hotel for the monies
Large rooms with gardens
Very outdated, not a 4 star property
The room was spacious, the bed was large and comfortable, the veranda was secluded and ideal. the bathroom was large and well equipped. Breakfast was good with plenty of choice. The staff were very friendly and exceptionally helpful.
It was a pity the bistro was not open for evening food as we would have eaten there a couple of times.
Fantastic location next to beach, shop and restaurants. Lovely setting and atmosphere. Great breakfast and helpful staff
In general the hotel is fine but the only thing that deserves acknowledgement is kind staff. The value for money the hotel charges for one night is disastrous - see below.
In general the hotel is fine, kind staff, nice room with a view, a clean pool but... For the price 340€ / night in standard room one would simply expect services on the unbeatable level; which is unfortunately not the case. The breakfast does not meet the criteria to be amazed of - fresh vegetable missing, only two kinds of salami and cheese available. Hotel restaurant at the same or even worse quality than other restaurants nearby. Hotel pool opens from 8am to 12am and then from 3pm again, closes at 7pm. Abundant flies in the restaurant and also by the pool. Beach sun beds not included in a rate.
the hotel is fantastic, nice rooms surrounded by a beautiful garden full of flowers, very nice pool, little gym which I used every morning. good breakfast with pool-view. great location: 5 min by foot to the beach, private beach for hotel guests. large and free car parking available for guests. LOVED IT !
good location, comfortable beds, tasty breakfast and well known old school climate..:)
close to the beach - large rooms
quite expensive - breakfast is served by a lady who’s not very friendly
Location was great - really close to the beach, restaurants and shops. Most of the staff were very friendly.
Rooms felt quite basic for the price. The bed was not particularly comfortable. Breakfast felt a bit disappointing compared to similar places we stayed elsewhere.
Nice Hotel with a good breakfast buffet and privat beach.
Rooms and furniture are a bit old, could need a renewable.
lovely room set I. pretty grounds
The bistro didn’t have much ambience so we left ones elsewhere
