The hotel offers spacious rooms that are always clean, have air conditioning, and a balcony. While slightly dated, they are super clean and well-maintained, with complimentary beer, soft drinks, and nuts/chocolates available. The exceptional service, especially from the bar team, sets this hotel apart, although some minor issues were noted with the spa staff. The location, with well-maintained gardens and excellent hygiene standards, is very popular and convenient, with outstanding service from staff like Aydin and Suat. The dining experience is top-notch with a wide range of high-quality options available. The facilities are well-appointed, contributing to a comfortable stay overall.

The hotel is situated right on the beach, offering a great location. The rooms, although clean and well-maintained, were a bit dated with some noise disturbances at early hours. The exceptional service truly set this hotel apart, with attentive staff going above and beyond to ensure a fantastic holiday experience.

I had a mixed experience at the hotel. The rooms on the other side of the hotel had an inferior sea view but were equipped with a mini fridge and a kettle, always filled up with tea and coffee, which was nice. The cleanliness was impeccable, and the pillows provided good support even for someone with a bad back. The spacious room with a huge bed, Jacuzzi bath, and sunbeds on the balcony made the extra cost worth it.

My stay at the hotel was an absolute delight. The rooms were beautifully decorated and spacious, with luxurious amenities like a Jacuzzi bath and sunbeds on the balcony, definitely worth the extra money. The service was exceptional, especially at the Angola Bar where Mohammed took great care of me, remembering my orders and ensuring I was always comfortable as a smoker preferring an outdoor table. The location on Lara Beach was breathtaking, offering a stunning sea view from my room and a well-maintained beach. The dining experience was top-notch, with a variety of options that exceeded my expectations. The facilities at the hotel were fantastic, providing everything I needed for a relaxing and enjoyable stay.

The hotel offers clean and comfortable rooms equipped with a mini fridge and a kettle always filled with tea and coffee. However, adding some snacks could enhance the experience. The attentive service stands out with dedicated staff catering to various needs. It boasts a great beachfront location but could use some improvements for non-smoking areas outside.
