mixed feelings about my stay
missing fridge poorly installed taps
I was initially impressed with the hotel's location and the friendliness of the staff but the room itself had some issues. there was no fridge which was inconvenient, and the bathroom fixtures seemed poorly installed. the restaurant food was also a letdown. My meal arrived cold and i had to send it back not once, but twice. it was like the high prices didn't match the actual quality, a disappointing experience overall.

partial view week-old fish
the staff mostly left me alone, what i prefer.
the room, listed as a double room sea view, only offered a partial view. i had to crane my neck to see the water. also, the brasserie food was mediocre at best. the fish tasted like it was a week old. i think the chef needs to find a new supplier or just retire.

The hotel benefits from fantastic sea views and easy access to the beach, a private gate providing direct access to the main beach entrance in about two minutes, very convenient. The expansive views of the bay are what make the hotel really lovely.
