Perfect location if you’re doing an early dolphin or albatross tour—literally right across the street, so you can just walk over in minutes. Super convenient and stress-free for early starts. Great choice if wildlife tours are your priority.

Despite initial issues with a slightly delayed checkin our overall experience was fantastic. The complimentary bubbles and chocolates were greatly appreciated. We paid for a more expensive spa room on the front - spacious room with great views of the sea and mountains
