Fair rating - 4.8 Wonderful hotel, bright and clean rooms, beautiful view from the window. Very friendly staff, 4 wonderful pools, from deep (2 meters) to shallow, for children. There is a private beach (no need to pay specially for access to the sea). Inside the hotel there are several souvenir shops and a currency exchange office with a good, fair exchange rate. The only thing I didn't like was the restaurant. The food at breakfast (included) is good, but if you want to order something for lunch or dinner, be prepared that the food will be undercooked, almost half-raw. And the hotel restaurant has very high prices. There are excellent restaurants within a two-minute walk from the hotel, where the food is delicious and the prices are half the price.
