I really enjoyed my stay at this hotel, especially being right on the beach where I could lounge in the sun. The rooms were spacious and kept clean, creating a comfortable atmosphere. The restaurant staff, especially Ameena, were delightful and truly enhanced my dining experience. My only drawbacks were that the breakfast menu was a bit limited, and it is quite far from the city center, which might not be ideal for everyone.

I recently stayed at this hotel, and it had some really nice aspects but also a few drawbacks. The beach access was absolutely stunning, making it feel like a true getaway. The rooms were comfortable, but I felt they could use a bit of updating. The service was good overall, but I wish the dining options had been a little more varied. Prices felt fair for what we got, though some amenities could be improved.

My stay at this hotel was enjoyable overall, especially because the rooms were clean and comfortable, and there was a lovely pool area to relax in. However, the dining options left much to be desired as breakfast was rather basic. Also, it's worth noting that while the beach is stunning, the hotel is a bit far from the city center, which might be inconvenient for some. All in all, it was a good experience for the price.
