    Right on the best part of the beach (most of the beach is very broad but in this part it’s very quick to get to the water). Hotel was clean, quiet and well maintained.

    location is 20m from the beach, brand new refurbished hotel. Our room was with a big terrace with view on the see. The owner was very kind and helpful, providing space for the parking. Small Bar attached to the hotel for breakfast and tapas !...

    ● New and modern. Very tasteful design. "Less is more" elegance  -  exactly what I like most. ● Convenient location. In the centre and just by the beach. But quiet. ● Balcony with sea view and sunny roof terrace. -> Thanks to the gentle staff...
