Cozy Comfort

“I stayed in a Standard Double Room and absolutely loved the warm decor with plenty of wood furniture. The bed was incredibly comfortable, making it a perfect retreat after a day of exploring. The side sea view was a good bonus that added to my overall experience.” view full review

Delicious Breakfast

“The breakfast buffet was a highlight of my stay. While there could have been a bit more variety for vegetarians, I appreciated the freshly prepared hot options. Getting tea and coffee brought to my table rather than serving myself was a lovely touch that enhanced the breakfast experience.” view full review

Refreshing Amenities

“I found the bathroom amenities quite satisfactory. The cleanliness was up to par, and I appreciated the hot water availability, especially during my windy stay. The shower provided a refreshing experience, and I was pleased with the overall functionality.” view full review
