Absolutely rude staff!! One would think that if u r staying at the property, it would be ok for you to use the lounge chairs at night(hotel property)..we were shooed away and ask to return to the beach at 9am. We could sit on the sand if we wanted but not their chairs because it was night!! Their check in and check out people were also extremely rude. I didnt see a single staff member smile!

One of the nicest hotels I've ever stayed in. The staff were absolutely amazing and so friendly, the rooms were cleaned everyday to the very best standard and in a quick time so if you needed to pop back to your room you weren't interrupting the cleaning. The pictures of the hotel are exactly what you get in real life and the views were unreal, seeing the sunset and rise again were a complete joy. The hotel is in walking distance to almost everything in the old town too which just tops of the experience. I will hopefully return again one day.
