On the beach

This Mediterranean-style resort is located on the waterfront and on the beach. Take advantage of the beach loungers, beach umbrellas, and beach towels at the sandy beach. Experience the magic of ocean-view dining with a special meal at the restaurant. Treat yourself to a refreshing cocktail at the beach bar. An on-site activity to enjoy while visiting is beach volleyball. Bicycle rentals are a noteworthy activity worth checking out nearby.
