Infinity pool vibe!
I had such a chill time lounging by the infinity pool, even managed a quick swim despite some gloomy clouds. Check-in was a breeze, and the staff were super friendly. The only thing was the dining area was a bit too busy at breakfast, had to wait a while for a table. Still, good vibes overall!

The casual chic ambiance of the room was paired with stunning water views, making for a lovely backdrop. A highlight was the beautifully heated pool, perfect for an afternoon dip. While food options on-site were great, they leaned a bit pricey. The lack of shade around the pool could be a downside for sun-seekers. a relaxed experience with a few minor hiccups.

Our room was spacious with an awesome sea view, and we loved the early morning sun streaming in. The infinity pool was perfect for unwinding, and the heated pool offered another great spot to relax.
