I had a wonderful stay at this hotel, located next to the beach and surrounded by beautiful scenery. My Beach Villa with a pool was just like the pictures - clean, spacious, and very comfortable. The staff was incredibly friendly and attentive, making me feel right at home. However, I found the dining options a bit overpriced, especially for those without half-board. Overall, it was great value for money, but the dining experience could use some improvement.

My stay at this resort was quite nice. The location is excellent, making it easy to explore the surrounding area. The professional and friendly service really stood out, and I appreciated the welcoming atmosphere.

I had a really pleasant stay at this hotel. The rooms were modern and came with some cute complimentary amenities like beach bags and flip flops. The staff was incredibly kind and helpful throughout my stay. The location was gorgeous, just a short distance from the airport, with stunning views of the sea. However, the dining options, while tasty, could be a bit pricey, which may not be ideal for everyone.

My stay at this hotel was truly amazing! The rooms were stunning and really comfortable, plus the staff was incredibly friendly.

My stay at the hotel was quite pleasant overall. The rooms were well-equipped and stunning, which made my holiday truly enjoyable. However, I did find some sharp edges on the door locks and splinters on corners that were quite dangerous. The staff, especially Agnes the diving instructor and Tayir from the water sports center, were incredibly friendly and made me feel welcomed. The location is breathtakingly beautiful, situated just 30 minutes from the airport, enhancing the overall experience.

The beach villa with a pool was lovely and spacious, and the staff was extraordinarily friendly and helpful throughout my stay. However, the dining experience, while good, could use a bit more variety for breakfast. Overall, it's great value for money, but be cautious about swimming due to frequent boat traffic.
