We loved every part of our stay. The position is excellent, close to the center but yet isolated enough to be quiet; great access to the beach and comfortable beds; the staff is very friendly and helpful. The food at the bar/restaurant is also very good. We only regret we couldn't stay more days...

It’s such a great spot for a relaxing holiday. My dad and I had been travelling non stop for four weeks and just needed to relax. We had everything we needed at the resort - the food and drinks are very cheap, the staff were amazing and the facilities were great. We really did not want to leave.

I was there with my mother, initially booked two rooms, but have been upgraded to interconnecting rooms with a living and ptrivate pool. It made our stay amazing and it was an unexpected nice surprise, thank you! Everything was perfect - extremely clean location, really appreciate the cleaning team who was very dilligent and thorough every day. Fruit baskets and wlecome bottle of wine, together with daily free bottle of water and complimentary coffee made our days carefree! We have not used the pool, excellent sandy beach, clean, you can find free sun lounges even later in the day (which may be a concern in other locations). Beach umbrellas could be taller though :-).Beach towels provided and can be changed on request. Very well organised breakfast facilities, available tables at all times (we appreciated the long breakfast up to 11 am) Location on a busy street full of lively tavernas and lot of boutiques, however the resort is very quiet at night (except for the sea waves - if you are near the sea - wonderful sound!) Overall an excellent experoence, hope to be back!
