I couldn't have asked for a better hotel location! The stunning sea views from my room's lovely balcony were simply breathtaking. The delicious cakes served were a delightful treat amidst the beautiful waters. However, the unease at the receptionist’s behavior and uncertainty about the manager's intentions left me a bit bewildered.

This hotel offers a mixed experience with delightful cakes in the rooms but a disappointing receptionist encounter. The location on the cliff is breathtaking, with a private beach, although the WiFi connection is unreliable. The dining offers tasty options, and the facilities are good overall with clean towels and balconies. However, the fear-inducing manager presence tarnishes the service quality.
