I had a really pleasant stay at this hotel. The rooms were spacious and clean, making for a very comfortable experience. The location was unique, nestled in the desert, which added a special charm, although it might not be ideal for everyone. The staff was welcoming, and I truly appreciated the modern amenities. However, the dining options were quite limited, making me wish there were more choices available. Overall, the value for money was decent, but there are a few areas that could use improvement.

I had a wonderful time at the hotel, which boasts a stunning view of the coastline. The rooms were spacious and clean, making my stay very comfortable. However, I felt the dining area could use a bit more variety, especially at breakfast. The facilities, including the pool, were great but could have benefited from more lounge chairs. Overall, it offered good value for what I paid, though the Wi-Fi situation was a bit inconvenient as it wasn't complimentary.
