As a solo female traveler, feeling safe and comfortable is very important to me — and this hotel exceeded all expectations. The location is ideal — just steps from a stunning, peaceful beach where I enjoyed morning walks and breathtaking sunsets. The area and the hotel felt very safe at all times, even in the evening. I truly appreciated the relaxed, welcoming atmosphere. The hotel itself is modern, clean, and beautifully maintained. My room was spacious and cozy, with a lovely view and all the essentials for a restful stay. But the real highlight was the staff — incredibly friendly, professional, and genuinely caring. From check-in to check-out, they made me feel at home. They were always ready to help, offer local tips, or simply check in to make sure I was enjoying my stay. If you’re traveling solo, especially as a woman, I highly recommend this hotel. I felt safe, supported, and completely relaxed the entire time. It’s the perfect spot for anyone looking to unwind by the beach with top-notch service. I can’t wait to return! 🌊🌞
