Lost 2 credit cards just outside the hotel. Person who found it brought it to the hotel reception. Apparently, hotel staff looked up name on creditcard in the hotel guests database, matched it and returned it to me upon check out next morning....

During my stay, I appreciated the stunning rooftop pool with its amazing views. The staff provided excellent service. The buffet breakfast was particularly impressive, offering a wide array of delicious options to start the day. I found the air conditioning to be somewhat inadequate, which was a bit uncomfortable at times.

It has a very good location, with nice swimming pools and beach view. The staff was kind. The hotel is extremely close to the Shoko and Catwalk which are very good places to have a party.
The internet was very poor... If somebody need the internet during the stay, forget this hotel. That killed me. I could not open any website at first.. So I could not work..

Really good Service and Fine Rooftop Views
The rooftop pool offered amazing views of the Mediterranean, perfect for a relaxing evening. The breakfast was extensive, with freshly made pastries and a variety of healthy options. The staff were pretty good too, providing excellent recommendations for local dining. I found the air conditioning to be a bit inadequate.
