“Perfect spot!”
The most perfect location - right on the beach!! Close to restaurants, Ali the chef done us a lovely breakfast, and fresh fish meal one evening! We were the only people staying at the property, due to the war in Middle East, so it was very very quiet!

“Lovely hotel with great views”
I had a truly lovely stay at the Royal Beach Hotel! The hotel itself is beautiful – stylish, clean, and very well maintained. The beach right in front of the hotel is stunning, with clear water and soft sand, perfect for relaxing or going for a swim. One of the best things about this hotel is the location – it’s so close to everything! Shops, restaurants, and local attractions are all just a short walk away, which made getting around super convenient. The staff were friendly and helpful, and everything from check-in to check-out was smooth and stress-free. I would definitely stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a relaxing beach getaway in a great location.

“Mixed feelings.”
The location was excellent,and the cabanas good and comfortable. The cups had not been washed from previous occupants,and service was not very satisfactory.Though a functional restaurant is supposed to be available,it was not so.The one day we required breakfast,we had to wait over two hours,inspite of giving the order the night before

“Amazing location right on the beach.”
Amazing cabanas right on the beach. Lovely quiet location but still very close to town. They did a great fish bbq for us on overlooking the sea. Would definitely return. Very relaxing stay. Thank you!

We had three fantastic nights at this small, idyllic place by the beach. It’s very simple, charming, and authentic. The manager and his staff are incredibly helpful and welcoming, and they will do everything they can to give you the best possible experience. We got up in the morning and enjoyed the sunrise by the beach.

Unique property with beach views from every room. Clean and comfortable. Locate at the top end of the main beach hence easy walk along the beach ( or road) into the action but nice and quiet and hassle free relaxation.
