Everything was perfect, its staff and rooms, plus free wi-fi. I was here for 7 nights and ate at a la carte restaurant with a nice view over the garden and Atlantic ocean. The bed was exceptionally comfortable, used ample space and thick blackout curtains

I had a good stay with a breakfast included and loved the location, it was perfect and right at the sea. The beds were great and each well-appointed room had a mini bar, climate control and an individual safe.

We liked this contemporary place and its super location. Had new-fashioned standard room with balcony, a stunning view plus extra large. There was absolutely incredible stuff and the service was efficient. Brilliant food in the poolside restaurant was the best part. Our stay was a just perfect experience.
Unfortunately Wi-Fi was very poor.
