I adored the quiet mornings i spent by the infinity pool! the warm sun and gentle breeze seemed to embrace me there, and the attentive service at the mokka bar added a special touch. our room, a penthouse suite sea view, was spacious and filled with light. It reminded me of a sanctuary.
The fitness center looked quite dated, with equipment showing signs of wear. It didn't inspire me to continue my routine. also, finding parking could be a little challenging at times. I had to circle around a few times before securing a spot one evening, though the daily charge felt a little excessive, the location was perfect! though the parking was expensive.

mixed experience. certain aspects require attention.

poor buffetoutdated decor
The fitness center was not up to standard for a hotel of this supposed caliber. i found it poorly equipped. the buffet meal also lacked quality. It felt quite basic. additionally, charging for parking, even just a few euros, seems petty when the room rate already cost 270 euros. there wasn't even a coffee machine in the room and the view overlooked the parking area. The decor felt outdated.
