Wonderful and welcoming hotel. We arrived late, 22.30. Diner stops at 21.30. They served us a nice warm meal, because they knew:they checked the plane. Such a warm gesture. The hotel is perfect right on the beach, free sunbeds. The food is exceptional. So tasteful. Staff is warm and great. The chef of the kitchen is a nice and funny man. We loved our stay there!
