An immaculately presented, inviting, family-run property with a warm welcome and relaxed atmosphere. Some distance from the beach, although the pool area and bar are appealing, if a little tight on sunbed space.

Suitable for families as there is a children’s pool and also for adults not wanting to be in the busy centre but with easy access to restuarants and evening entertainment. Not suited to those with mobility problems due to the elevated location.
