Great location and easy check in.
Staff were a little unfriendly to my partner when he arrived, and the room was not very clean. The spa was not clean and was unpleasant to use.
It was really great. Perfect location near restaurants, cafes and a short walk to the beach.
We had a great time. The pool and bar area was awesome, great vibes and friendly staff.
