“Beautiful hotel with wonderful staff and lovely buffet style breakfast and dinner. Beautiful gardens”
My room was lovely and quiet tucked away in the corner . The beach is beautiful but couldn't swim as the sea is freezing but that's no fault of the hotel staff lovely and friendly but this hotel does not really have any music for English people mainly French. I enjoyed my birthday week at this beautiful hotel . Thank you so much. 💓

“Adequate - should have been so much better, but a lack of management and attention to detail lets it down.”
Should have been a lovely property, right on the beach, with great facilities.

“Nice hotel for some winter sun, about an hours drive from the Airport. Speaking French is helpful.”
The hotel was lovely, nice pool and access to a good beach. We were half board and all the meals were excellent. Air Con was quiet and effective. No signs of any Mosquitoes.

“Excellent luxury hotel on a beautiful beach”
The delux rooms near the beach are wonderful and the whole ambiance of the hotel gives a feeling of exceptional quality. The loungers on the beach are really spaced out and never full and the beach cafe / bar is wonderful. The food was always really good.

“Truly exceptional”
The food is excellent, the staff is nice and the beach is very close to the hotel. The rooms are cleaned every day, we really enjoyed our stay, I recommend it! Breakfast was always buffet style and dinner was sometimes buffet style and sometimes from a menu where there was a choice of three meals.

I stayed in this beautiful four stars hotel with by beloved and beautiful girlfriend. The view and the location were great : right at the beach. The staff was very friendly. However, my girlfriend encountered a bad experience with the cleaning staff: some of her make up (foundation) mysteriously disappeared which we had realized when coming from breakfast and after the morning cleanup service. The issue has been raised with the reception who did not seem to be concerned. The product was never found.
