Reviews and Ratings
Staying in the annexe with a balcony overlooking the pool was excellent, offering a great sea view of the beach. The room was ready and exactly as booked.
The hotel offers a basic but clean and quiet room with a great sea and estuary view, possibly due to a cancellation. The service is extremely friendly and goes above and beyond in treating guests as individuals. The location is fantastic, overlooking the harbour, beach, and town with direct access to the promenade. The dining experience, while average with a wide selection, falls short of a 4-star rating. Overall, a comfortable stay with friendly staff and a beautiful view.
The hotel offers a pleasant stay with clean, comfortable rooms featuring beautiful views of the marina and mountains. The service is top-notch with friendly and helpful staff. The location is delightful, right next to the beach, though a bit of a walk to town. The dining experience is extensive and delicious, priced reasonably at 25 euros. Overall, a great value for money choice.
The hotel offers stunning views across the river and mountains from the balcony, but was noisy with constant beach work starting early on Sunday mornings. The staff is very courteous, efficient, and friendly, providing a family-like atmosphere with limited English proficiency. Great location with easy access to the promenade, beach, and a variety of dining options. The dining experience was average and not in line with the 4-star rating.
I had a fantastic stay at the hotel, with a room offering a huge window overlooking the marina and mountains. The bustling tidal harbour front with its array of restaurants and cafes made the view more captivating than a standard sea view. The modern room, although in a block structure, was comfortable. The only downside was the basement location for dining, missing out on the sea views.
