I had an amazing stay at this hotel! The rooms were excellent, incredibly clean, and came with a private terrace on the cliff edge with stunning sea views. The service was hit and miss at times but overall very kind and accommodating. The location was perfect for me, away from the hustle and bustle, high on a cliff above a beautiful cove. The dining experience was delicious with fresh fruit, smoothies, and a variety of breakfast options.

While the hotel lacked in facilities, the overall experience made up for it. We were mostly out enjoying the sunset views by the pool, so it wasn't a major concern for us.
