Fish Market Feast

The Fish Market Restaurant is an absolute gem! I had one of the best fish dishes I've enjoyed in a long time. The selection of fresh seafood was very nice, and the experience was made even more good by our wonderful host, who ensured we felt right at home. The attention to detail in food presentation and taste blew me away. I can't wait to return for another culinary experience!

Tranquil Swimming Pools

The swimming pools at the resort were simply fantastic! The outdoor pool was beautifully designed and provided a perfect escape from the hustle and bustle of everyday life. I enjoyed relaxing by the pool, and the nice views were an added bonus. It was great to unwind in such a soothing environment after a long day.

Fun for the Kids

I couldn't have asked for a better place for family fun. The resort offered fantastic children's amenities, including a swimming pool where our kids had a blast under the watch of attentive lifeguards. Additionally, the Kids Club provided a perfect space for them to watch movies and enjoy activities. It truly was a family-friendly vacation!

I had a wonderful stay at the hotel with its amazing sea and harbor views. The rooms were clean, staff were helpful, and being right at the ocean's edge was exactly what I had hoped for. However, the dining experience left much to be desired with limited options and slow service.

I stayed in a chalet that definitely needs renovation and a thorough revamp. Checking the room before departing is essential. The service was quite poor overall, from the reception to the coffee shop and restaurant, although the staff member who served me did his job with perfection and a smile. The hotel's location is remote and far from downtown and the city center, but it's in a closed community complex. The dining experience wasn't anything special despite the high prices charged. Overall, the hotel needs improvements.

My stay at the hotel was a mixed experience. The rooms were comfortable and cozy, but I found them not very clean and a bit dusty. The service, although the staff was polite, had its rough edges. The location was perfect for those seeking peace and quiet away from the city crowd, but it wasn't the most picturesque neighborhood. The dining options were sadly lacking in variety, offering the same dishes throughout my stay.
