Hotel Maria was a lovely place to stay! Everything felt clean, fresh, and welcoming from the moment we arrived. Breakfast was small but very good, with fresh fruit and amazing coffee. The staff were so friendly and made us feel at home, and the hotel’s location near the beach was perfect. You can really feel the care that goes into this place—Tzia Maria would definitely be proud.
