"Exceptional stay with my family. The kids loved the pool while we enjoyed the peace and comfort of the rooms. The staff was extremely friendly and went so far as to make sure we had a great time"
"Loved our stay. Was the perfect spot, quite enough away from the old town but very accessible when you wanted to go in. There are steps down to the old town so not good if your bad on your feet. Sometimes we got a taxi back and it was only 3 euros, bargain. I would definitely recommend. "
"We loved our stay so much we extended it. Great location, perfect for our family (2 children). Close to everything while still being outside of the main strip and avoiding the noise from the night life. Will definitely be staying here again"
"it's an old building, but they keep it clean. It's way up on a hill above town, so getting to restaurants is easy, getting back to the hotel on foot to slot of work"
"Roadworks outside of room from early in morning
Diggers making it hard to relax at all
One lift carrying three in the whole Hotel not enough
Staff slow and not overly helpful
Pool could have been cleaned
Breakfast ok
Wouldn't stay again "

"Confort à l’américaine, chambre spacieuse buffet déjeuner avec beaucoup de variété. Piscine et installations adéquates. Par contre un peu distant à pieds des sites d’intérêt."
"We just checked out today (7/24/25) from our honeymoon. I see what people say online about the hotel being outdated. That being said, it is kept very clean including the pools, restaurant and rooms. The staff are outstanding and the location is quiet in a beautiful neighborhood that is conveniently close to the marina as well as a few beaches. We walked to 4-5 of them and saw (and went) to a lot of restaurants that are close by. Another good thing is that it is truly adult only with no screaming kids. I love kids but sometimes you just want to be in a quiet location. We would definitely stay here again."
"We stay at a lot of properties and many of them are the caliber of this one. However, your staff is A Plus and for this reason alone, we encourage other people to stay here… They represent your brain with the upmost professionalism. Thank You"
