"We absolutely loved our two night stay and wished that we had booked more nights! The hotel was wonderful and we arrived at 10 am aware that check in wasn't until 4pm, however the helpful staff on the desk said that there was a room available straight away. The views were wonderful of the beach and the swimming pool. The two bed apartment was clean and spacious for a family or 5. What was wonderful, was having the choice of cooking or eating out. We enjoyed the buffet breakfast and it was excellent for coeliac and dairy free allergies. Perhaps there could have been a pancake or waffle that was dairy free for two of my sons. The hotel had wonderful, easy access to the beach from the pools. This also gave variation to the hotel. Most importantly, all the members of staff were hospitable and welcoming. We will definitely be returning next year."
