The beach has lovely golden fine sand, but unfortunately, the parking situation is quite unpleasant as they charge a fee of 5€ and the road leading to the beach is in poor condition.

The beach is pleasant, and the food and drinks are of good quality. However, the roads leading to the beach are hazardous due to their small size and deep potholes.

The beach is stunning, but the road leading to it is in terrible condition. If you're not a confident driver, it's best to avoid driving down there.

The beach is exceptionally clean and the sea is lovely. The cost of two sun beds is reasonable at 7 euros, and the staff is incredibly friendly and accommodating. I highly recommend this spot. The only downside is that it isn't a party destination, so it's more suited for couples or families looking for a relaxing vacation.

This beach offers a delightful experience with its soft sand and shallow waters, making it an ideal spot for families with kids. Even though the hotels are located right on the beach, there are still plenty of sun beds available, especially if you visit in the evening. The surrounding scenery is breathtaking, with lush vegetation, colorful flowers, and rocky landscapes that blend seamlessly with the hotels' architecture. Overall, this beach is a picturesque and relaxing destination that is sure to please visitors of all ages.
