    It was very peaceful, the bed was comfortable but what I love the most if the view , I can see the sea from my bedroom and I could hear the clashing wave during night time. Definetely will book it again for future use.

    I really liked the view from my room. Waking up to the sea view and also the pool view was very relaxing. And it is a quiet place, the rooms were spacious.
