The hotel's setting on the beach was minimalistic yet unique and special, offering a stunning blend of a palm grove leading to a beautiful beach with soft white sand, lounge chairs, and hammocks with shaded palapas. The service stood out with helpful staff like David and Manuel who went above and beyond to be friendly, even offering margarita-making lessons. While the location was perfect, right by the beach with immaculate grounds and inventive cocktails, the dining experience excelled with thoughtful meals served until late. On the downside, the price for some services like dining was a bit high with traditional Greek dishes and a buffet style, yet the facilities were well-kept and enjoyable, enhancing the overall experience. The tranquil atmosphere and great service made the stay memorable.
