The hotel location is FANTASTIC. It overlooks the sea. The views were amazing. The hotel breakfast provided so much choice. It was really difficult to decide what to have.
The hotel is quite good, but the food offered disappointing variety. It also did not keep the appropriate temperature. The beach is a long way down. I feared the long walk back up.
