Reviews and Ratings
I had a wonderful stay at this hotel. The rooms were spacious and modern, with a large balcony providing an amazing view of the beach. The service was top-notch, especially the room service and shuttle service. The location couldn't have been better, right by the sea. However, the dining options were limited, and the paid shuttle service was a bit pricey.
