Encore by Mingara is absolutley 10/10. The nicest hotel room we've stayed in, gorgeous bathoom, just visually beautiful (king suite) and for an amazing price as well. Staff were perfect and friendly. Sad that we were only staying for one night because it's the perfect place for a long stay!! Only disappointment was the lack of vegan food options which is a shame because it's 2025 and there's no reason to not cater to people who don't want to eat animals or their by-products.

Great place to stay for a night, maybe more if you are ok with drives to the beach, as it’s not near anywhere, apart from the club. Modern, great shower, comfortable bed. Friendly customer service. Just call to check if all facilities are open before booking.
