The staff, especially Olena, went above and beyond to make my stay unforgettable. Although I hadn’t booked my tour in advance, she managed to arrange a car with a very knowledgeable driver for the entire day. Francisco from the restaurant was also incredibly helpful and kind. The massage was amazing,and last but not least,the manager was so welcoming and genuinely cared about making sure I had the best time possible. The property is situated 20 minutes from downtown, offering a serene and peaceful environment. While this may pose a challenge for guests without a car, taxis are readily available at all hours.

The hosts contacted me a few days before my arrival to offer help and provide information. They were great and very helpful, they were easy to contact if we needed to ask questions. The house was clean and had an amazing view. not far from the airport. The location of the house will be better for those who hired a car as it is up a hill.

New, modern and elegant hotel, with a traditional touch through its decorations. Very large and comfortable triple room. Close to the ocean and old town. Close to the airport. We stayed only one night, as we landed very late in the night. No problems with the check-in or with the breakfast, for late risers. We could stay there all our holiday, at 1/3 price for a similar room. Very good price-quality ratio.

We required budget accommodation close to the airport, as we had an early morning flight, so was adequate for a 1 night stay. The room was spacious and comfortable.
