The hotel offers beautiful and well-decorated rooms with the best shower experience after a day of exploring. The view of the sea was recommendable, and the bath towels were comfortable and of excellent size. However, the room felt a bit small for two people, and the location could make you feel overlooked by passersby and the house at the top of the hill.

The hotel offers stunning views out to sea, but rooms with not a nice view may not be suitable for tall individuals. The service is very friendly and helpful, ensuring any issues are promptly resolved. The location is fantastic, offering great food served by fabulous staff, and the dining experience, while with exceptional views, may have slight room for improvement in variety. Overall, a welcoming hotel with breathtaking views but some limitations for taller guests.
