one of the nicest places we have ever stayed in. DO NOT GET THE DINNER OPTION. The low cost is tempting, its a highly rated resort and the breakfast is excellent. But the dinner was poor quality, food was cold and with few options. Huge disappointment. The other onsite (and off site) restaurants had fabulous food options and much nicer surroundings.

The room was spacious and clean with a wonderful view of the sea. The staff were friendly and helpful. The hotel was in a lovely quiet area just a 20 minute bus ride to the old town. There were also plenty of outdoor pool options, although the weather prevented us trying them all. The breakfast buffet was not so great. Although there was a good selection of food on offer, the hot options were actually cold. The buffet area was also not big enough to accomodate the amount of guests, especially around the breakfast cereal, milk and tea and coffee machines. Overall though, my friend and I had a wonderful stay.
