We had an unforgettable stay at this beautiful hotel! The location was amazing, just a short stroll to the beach and local dining options. The staff were genuinely kind and attentive, making our honeymoon even more special. While the restaurant prices felt a bit high for the buffet breakfast, there were plenty of nearby alternatives to choose from. Overall, it was a great experience, and we can't wait to return!
