My stay at this resort spa was mostly enjoyable. The rooms were clean and spacious, and I loved having a big terrace to relax on. The service was prompt, but a little more attention would make it perfect. The location is lovely, as it's close to the beach and other attractions. However, I found the dining options to be lacking in variety during breakfast, which was a bit of a letdown. Overall, it's good value for money.

The location by the beach was perfect, providing a peaceful escape, although it was a bit far from the main attractions. Overall, it was a good experience, but some minor improvements would make it great.

My stay at the resort spa was quite an experience! The rooms were clean, spacious, and featured lovely big windows that let in natural light. However, I found the dining options a bit lacking in variety. The location is nice and quiet, right by the beach, which is perfect for relaxing. Despite the beautiful setting, there were some rocky areas that made access to the beach a little tricky. Overall, the place offers good value for a spa retreat, but some amenities, like Wi-Fi, are additional costs.
