Reviews and Ratings
The hotel offers spacious rooms with a big terrace that may not be useful in the winter but are lovely otherwise. The room with one bed was big, nice, comfortable, and clean. The service was fantastic with useful amenities like airport shuttle and welcome drink. The location, though slightly outside the village, is excellent for those seeking tranquility. Dining options were good, but nothing extraordinary. Overall, a comfortable stay with great value for money.

I had a mixed experience at this hotel. The room was quite spacious with a large terrace, which unfortunately was not very useful during the winter time. The bed was comfortable, and I enjoyed the amazing view from the window. However, the room layout could be improved to make better use of the space.
