We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this hotel, from start to finish it was excellent. The staff were wonderful, the facilities were second to none and the breakfast buffet was sublime. The hotel is a 18 minute walk from the train station or around 8 euros in a Uber. The bars and restaurants are on the doorstep. I would not hesitate to visit this hotel again the next time I’m in the area.

Buffet was terrible, both breakfast and dinner. Location not great… NO AIR CONDITIONING.
I was told they turn it off for winter but we have travelled world wide and never had this happen until Spain. There winter months are hot and guests who paid should have a option to use

Staff exemplary, especially Gabriel on reception.
Rooms and all areas exceptionally clean, breakfast had everything you could possibly want.
It was next to a lovely beach with waiter service, the pool was large and there were plenty of sun beds. Drinks were reasonably priced and the property was close enough (30 mins walk)to bus station, train station and shops.
