The residence is self, is very nice, safe and secure and quite attractive.

The b&b has no direct access to the sea at all: you have to walk for not less than 1 km to reach it. No air-conditioning as well. The room are close to the living room and starting from 6 30 am you hear a lot of noise of staff working around. The photos advertised on their web-site are misleading.... More

We stayed in the lodge for one night to break up a longish drive but we enjoyed our short stay. The place is kept very clean and the breakfast was very good as well and the place has very nice lounge/dining areas with great views. Our room overlooked the hotel car park but they have other rooms with sea views... More

Great view of sea. Sea appears as if there is hundreds of Dolphins are dancing. We stayed there with family with our teenager children, However, the view is great from 2nd level rooms and not ground floor rooms. Rooms are relatively small but very clean and good, new like. Everything is running perfect - no complain and the owner is... More

Although we enjoyed our stay in a nice room and had great breakfast, I experienced a billing problem which the hotel refused to resolve. E-mailed them several times and received a reply stating they would review. I sent several follow-up e-mails, but received no reply. Too bad.
