Not what it seems in the pictures.

I was excited about staying at this hotel as it looked modern and fresh from the photos. In reality I was very disappointed on arrival - the hotel is tierd and dated - the room was old and not fresh and contemporary like I had imagined it would be. The indoor bar was never open. On the plus side - although a bit dated the pool area was large with lots of sun loungers and access to the Rocky beach was lovely. Because of the facilities I enjoyed the stay but it wasn't the experirnce I had hoped for. You need a car to stay at this hotel.
