We chose this hotel because of its location overlooking a beach as we wouldn’t have any transport. However, the beach did not look like the beautiful white sandy pictures portrayed when booking. We found a horrible stinking mess which rendered the beach unusable. Although we were told it was seaweed washed up over winter, it should have been removed prior to the arrival of paying guests rather than half hearted attempts of removal during the week we stayed. We were unable to have breakfast on the terrace due to the sewage smell from the beach. Our beach holiday was non existent. Nearby beaches required a car to reach as they were beyond a short walk away. We found the hotel lovely, staff friendly and food was excellent as would be expected at a 4star hotel but felt badly let down by the state of the beach, which left us feeling we had paid a lot of money for a beach which didn’t exist.
