    Very comfortable and clean hotel, with a wonderful view. We recently enjoyed 10 nights here, visiting family and exploring the island. There is no beach access, but a large deck with swimming pool, and plenty of stylish loungers. Very good restaurant. The staff were exemplary. The aircon is good. The bed comfortable. The shower works well.
