We had a fantastic Stay at the Hotel Continental for 5 Nights. Didnt miss out on anything. Super friendly Staff, very warm and welcoming. Super service from the moment we arrived. The weather was nice so we had Breakfast outside on the wonderful Terrasse with spectacular view every morning. We used the the Gym, the SPA every day and even the Sun Chairs down by the Beach. I can warmly recommend this Hotel. Book a Room with Ocean view to experience the fantastic view every day. We did not have that, but it was nice anyway.
