The location provided a short coastal walk to the town center. Fresh orange juice and pastries were delivered before breakfast. I found this detail very romantic! Our room included patio seats. It was perfect.
The hairdryer lacked a cold setting. The heat was intense.

The receptionist greeted me with a glass of champagne upon arrival. My room was equipped with every amenity I could need. The breakfast I pre-ordered was delicious and promptly served. The staff operated the bar on an honesty basis.
