“Beautiful Parador in an excellent location with breathtaking views.”
Great view and location. Staff were very polite and helpful and even had a wheelchair we could use for our mother. Breakfast was very good. We were hoping to find a restaurant on site but there isn't one. But instead we found an excellent restaurant nearby. Would love to come back again one day.

The upgrade they provided us to a room with sea view - the hotel was far from being full, so it was a nice touch. Very quiet, perfect for resting, which was what we needed.

Great guy at check in, I’m sure his English was perfect but he did it all in Spanish so that we could practice.
