User reviews
"The beach is exclusively accessible for hotel guests, and it lacks proper facilities. The absence of toilets is a major inconvenience for bathers. Additionally, the beach cleaning needs to be improved. It's worth noting that the beach is more suitable for adults as accessing the sea can be difficult, and the water isn't always clean."
Gianluca Vittorio.
"The beach is excellent and inviting, but it's important to note that the entrance is exclusive to hotel guests only. It's a great spot to relax and enjoy the sun, and the beach is open to all hotel guests who have access to the entrance."
