Impressive Breakfast

During my recent stay, I was pleasantly surprised by the breakfast options available. It was an all-you-can-eat setup with a good variety that's perfect for families. I particularly enjoyed the delicious sausages, which were a highlight of my mornings. This breakfast definitely set a positive tone for the day ahead!

Beautiful Sea View

I was fortunate to have a room with a stunning sea view during my stay. Waking up to the view was a fantastic way to start each day. The warm atmosphere in the room made it a good place to return to after exploring.
