I absolutely loved the hotel, everything was amazing. The staff is great, the facilities are lovely, it felt very exclusive and private. The room and the view blew our minds! Being so close to the beach, the food in the restaurants so tasty, there’s nothing we didn’t love! The wifi worked in every corner of the hotel
