Everything was perfect - one of the best hotel we have been in our life. The atmosphere is very special. The design of the hotel is better than a 5 stars hotel. The owners and staff take care of every details. We appreciate also a lot the bedroom and swimming pool with sea view. Amazing food there as well.

Charming is an apt name for this beautiful hidden away gem. The staff are exceptionally friendly and helpful, really working hard to ensure our stay was a dream romantic romp. They even prepared a tailored vegan alternative menu that was an unexpected touch of care. We're truly grateful to Silvia and her team.

The room didn't quite have the sea view we'd hoped for, for the price.
