"From arrival to departure the reception staff were very helpful and on hand to answer any questions. The housekeeping staff cleaned every day and changed the towels, the room was always spotless on return. A fresh bottle of water was left for us every day and having a fridge in the room was an added bonus. Breakfast felt very relaxed, with stunning views out to sea in the restaurant and the choices on offer were all delicious (this is not a self service buffet, you sit down where you like and are served, if you are after a full cooked English breakfast then maybe this isn't the place for you). The staff in the restaurant were all very attentive and nothing was too much trouble for them. The pool had plenty of sun loungers with decent mattresses, some areas had umbrellas for shade and others for full on daytime sun. You could reserve the loungers if you wanted, but didn't experience any of the usual towel on beds situation like some resorts and it never felt overcrowded, despite a lot of people from other hotels coming in and using it on a daily basis. There was enough space between so you didn't feel on top of each other. The waiters came round regularly providing a full drinks/bar service. The menu for the evening was just as deliciious, it was a small menu but everything was cooked perfectly and couldn't fault the attention to detail. I really enjoyed my week's stay here, the hotel provides offers on Beauty & Massage Services for those that are interested"

"We only stayed for 1 night after a late flight, it was perfect for this. Sadly we didn’t use the pool as it was raining on our day of departure but it looked great. It’s really easy to find the hotel as it’s on the main road 8 minutes from the airport. Our score was slightly lower because of the limited breakfast choices. I don’t eat eggs or pastries/bread so there was little choice for me as there was no fruit, yogurt or nice cereal but it may be perfect for others. For the price it was absolutely fine and I would recommend."
