Worth weighing

4 to weigh
  • No pets allowed — The resort does not accommodate pets, so travellers with animals will need to look elsewhere.
  • Limited check-in window — Check-in is only between 14:00 and 21:30, so late arrivals may need to arrange alternative plans.
  • Not right on the beach — While close, the resort is not directly on the sand; expect a short walk (about 5 minutes) to reach the shore.
  • Basic room amenities only — Rooms come with essentials like air conditioning and a balcony, but there's no mention of minibars, safes, or other in-room extras.
