Great location; very close to the beach, several restaurants and shopping. The rooms are are very clean, but note they are not large; little to no space for storing clothes, we left ours in suitcases on the floor. There is a kettle, tea and instant coffee which is nice, as well as mugs and wine glasses and a fridge.

The room was spotless and the bed was very comfortable. The view from the room was awesome. The food menu was very limited and in my opinion very expensive. Drinks were also expensive. The pool looks great and there were plenty of people swimming and lounging around the pool.
