The hotel sits on a fairly steep hillside, offering stunning views of Playa Biesanz, a hidden gem of a beach where you can feel like you're in heaven. The rooms are spacious and cozy but could use more variety in amenities. The service is top-notch with exceptional hospitality from all staff members. However, the dining options are somewhat limited, and the Wi-Fi comes at an additional cost. Overall, a great location for beach lovers with excellent service but minor dining limitations.

The hotel is situated on a steep hill overlooking the ocean and offers beautiful views. The rooms have very good mattresses and provide a great view, but there are some issues with price and value for money. The service is exceptional with immediate assistance and excellent hospitality from all staff members. The location is close to Playa Biesanz, a hidden beautiful beach, but it lacks convenience in accessing local markets. The dining experience includes delicious tapas but may not be included in the rate. The facilities are well-maintained and meet expectations.
