The place is absolutely stunning, with plenty of shops and delicious food options. It's even more breathtaking at night, and the beach itself is simply amazing. There's absolutely nothing to complain about!

This serene and peaceful destination boasts a tranquil atmosphere with a refreshing lack of overwhelming crowds. However, the beach itself could benefit from some improvements to enhance its cleanliness and overall appeal.

This hotel is amazing, offering stunning views and a lovely pool area. Although the beach is a little rocky near the shore, it becomes more sandy as you swim out further. The food is superb, and the atmosphere is incredibly peaceful. The rooms are clean and modern, and the staff is extremely helpful and polite. I accidentally left my Kindle in my room, but they were kind enough to arrange its delivery to my next destination. I would definitely choose to stay here again.
