This hotel is beautifully located right on the beach, offering stunning views and a relaxed atmosphere. The rooms are pleasant and well-equipped, although some aspects fell short of expectations during my stay. While the dining experience showcased some delicious meals, it left room for improvement in service pace. Overall, this place can be great for a beach getaway, but some areas need attention, especially with the pricing.

I had an unforgettable anniversary dinner at the hotel, enjoying the stunning views of the bay and the warm hospitality of the staff. The food was exquisite, truly highlighting local flavors, though my experience with a previous stay wasn't as great due to room cleanliness issues and service hiccups. Overall, the positive dining experience and exceptional views made my visit memorable despite prior disappointments.

During my stay at the hotel, I was genuinely impressed by the stunning views and friendly service that made my experience memorable. The cleanliness and comfortable atmosphere contributed greatly to my enjoyment, but I found the dining options somewhat lacking, especially in the evening. Overall, while the high rates are understandable given the location, the dining experience could benefit from improvements.

Our visit was truly unforgettable! We enjoyed an exquisite meal with stunning views over the bay that added a magical touch to our anniversary celebration. The service was exceptional, making us feel right at home. The only downside was that we weren't actually staying at the hotel, but we would definitely consider it for future visits given the overall ambiance and offerings.

During my stay, I enjoyed some nice aspects, like the stunning views from my room and the quick response from staff to my requests. However, I found the dining experience left much to be desired, especially the dinner menu, and facing a building site was quite a drawback. Overall, it’s a place with potential, but I can't say it met my expectations.
