Very well-maintained older-era hotel in very quiet seafront location away from noisy attractions. Only stayed in one of smaller rooms, but it was very comfortable, nicely furnished and very well presented/cleaned. Slept superbly well! Excellent pool in-house and 9h golf course next door.

Room was modern and well decorated. Bed was comfy. Nice double rain shower in bathroom, although it had a small sink and was quite small overall. Breakfast was only average - things weren't restocked quickly enough and the coffee was mediocre.

The outside of the hotel was gorgeous, I even got confused if we were in the right place 😂. But the inside was wonderful, reminded me of the Titanic. The hotel has an indoor pool, spa, sauna, jacuzzi and a gym. The double room we got was spacious and we loved the toilet. And the staff was really helpful.
