User reviews

"The beach offers a stunning view of the sea just a short distance from the tower. The owners and chef are very friendly and accommodating, and the products they offer are exceptional and incredibly fresh."

Nikolai Valtrov

"My husband and friends visited this beach last night and he called me today to say it's a beautiful place with a wonderful view, fresh food, polite and helpful staff, and good prices. I'm on holiday and my husband took me to dinner there, and I can confirm that the location is spectacular. The food is very fresh - we had a seafood appetizer with raw fish and clams with pista..."
