This 4-star hotel offers room service and a concierge service. The accommodation provides a 24-hour front desk, airport transfers, a shared lounge and free WiFi throughout the property. One of the best hotels we've stayed, definitely would come here again. Everything was amazing - from the organised transfer to check-in. We were greeted with a smile as well as every single of our requests or questions was answered with a smile. The hotel is not big, so it's not overcrowded with a nice beach connected to it. The sun beds are extremely comfortable, the beach is clean and the beach bar is also nice with many options to grab a snack or a drink. The room was exceptionally clean (they also give you free bottles of water every day, which is a nice touch). We had a private pool connected to our room, which was also cleaned every day. The food is amazing. Every night they had different cuisines, so it was nearly impossible to try everything at once, but nevertheless, delicious. We would definitely come back again, it was wonderful staying there. :)
