The deep swimming pool was refreshing in the heat, offering wonderful views from the pool area.
Initial miscommunication about our room led to a rocky start, as we were checked into an occupied room.

breathtaking sea views, spacious rooms, pleasant hotel location
The property feels significantly overpriced for what is offered!!! The under-maintained pool area detracts from relaxation, and communication with reception needs major improvement given the limited staff on duty during peak hours!!!

The ocean view from my room's balcony was breathtaking, and I really enjoyed the beautiful garden area during my stay. I took full advantage of the outdoor swimming pool and the spa treatments, which were incredibly relaxing. The only downside was that the dining area could get a bit noisy at times, but it didn’t really bother me. 😊

Recommend it for families seeking relaxation
The staff here were genuinely friendly, going out of their way to help, especially when my daughter wanted to play tennis and they organized a mini match. The swimming pool was a highlight. we spent hours there, my daughter splashing around while I relaxed with a drink by the poolside.
It wasn’t inexpensive, but the experience made it acceptable.

The personal service from the staff was commendable, with Rahana and Shisha providing exceptional assistance during our meals.

We loved the breathtaking sea view from our room's balcony that added an extra layer of enjoyment to our stay.

great views , but lackluster dining options
The breathtaking sea views from my room provided a serene escape during my stay. The rooms are comfortable, making it easy to unwind after a long day. Breakfast was a highlight, with a satisfying spread that catered to a variety of tastes. Watching the waves from my balcony was truly mesmerizing, enhancing the overall experience.
The dining experience felt somewhat limited in variety.

Charming old-world experience with serene views
I had a delightful stay with captivating sea views from my room's balcony, and the atmosphere was peaceful and calming. The spacious room came with wooden furnishings, adding to the old-world charm, while the high tea in the lobby offered a lovely selection of local snacks. the dining experience was inconsistent, with some dishes impressing and others falling short.
