Worth weighing

4 to weigh
  • Facilities rated below average — The facilities score of 7.5 is the lowest category, so guests may find the shared spaces or equipment less impressive than other aspects.
  • Value score modest — With a value rating of 7.9, some guests might feel the price doesn't fully match what's offered, especially given the premium beachfront setting.
  • Limited check-in window — Check-in is only from 14:00 to 22:30, which could be inconvenient for late arrivals – plan accordingly.
  • No on-site dining details — A bar/lounge is listed but there's no mention of a full restaurant, so guests may need to venture out for meals.
