"Absolutely loved this stay! The hotel was in an amazing location. The beach and all the shopping was right out the door. The restaurant upstairs had gorgeous views especially for breakfast and in the evening. The spa had the perfect atmosphere. A heads up that you need to book the sauna ahead of time so make sure you get a booking because they fill up fast. Overall really loved this stay and will happily be back again."
