Great stay!
Great location, wonderful service, lovely breakfast, free offsite parking (about a 5 minute walk)! Standard rooms are a bit small, but we spent most of our time exploring the area.
Joel, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

This property was great in a great location. Parking was a bit of a walk but nothing outrageous. The breakfast offered was great and it is close to the old town. A bit pricy for what it offers but I would stay again.
Andres, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Nice visit
Nice place. Parking couple blocks away but after luggage drop a tuk tuk to take you to car. Lovely location 2 min walk to old town with cut shops and cafes. Very reminiscent of Greece. Food everywhere was delicious and well presented. Hotel dining excellent. Breakfast room is beautifully
Josina, 2-night trip

The property was lovely and right next to the sea. We stayed in the annex which was easy to access and comfortable/clean. The breakfast was night and the views are incredible.

Balcony to the sea was amazing.
Angel, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Wonderful stay at this hotel. I was a bit disappointed with the room view. When I booked the room, the picture showed a room with a sea view. Based on the picture, I was under the impression that I would have a sea view. It was a bit misleading. Overall, it was a good stay at this hotel. Breakfast was of high quality. Great selection. Staff were super friendly, specially Onik (sp?) and Nikola. They took care of our luggage and drove us to the parking lot (300 meters from the hotel). Location was superb. I was able to go swimming at the Beach Monachile daily.
