Awesome Experience!

The breakfast had wide choice of quality food. The beds are comfortable. The location is amazing. It is a short walk to the center, so I enjoyed the proximity to various attractions and the overall accessibility the hotel offers! The staff were friendly, really kind and helpful .
I noticed the pool towels needed a deposit at reception. The pool-Strandtücher was older than I expected.

Amazing stay and sea views!

sunny balconycomfortable bedenough sunbeds
I stayed over for a few nights. My room included sun most of the day thanks to the balcony! I ordered food as takeaway, and it was quick to take it to my room. I also noted enough sunbeds were available, so I did not need to rush for breakfast! The bed ensured a really comfortable sleep.
The pool area was sometimes a little loud with groups. This did make it less relaxing in the afternoons.
