The outdoor pool provides a refreshing escape, especially with the tempting 32° warmth, perfect for family relaxation. The spacious and clean family room makes it an ideal spot for unwinding together after a long day.
The room arrangement leaves much to be desired. Smaller rooms can feel cramped, especially when figuring out where to stash your belongings—suitcases clutter the floor, and towel space is limited to a single rail. Navigating to the bathroom also poses a challenge, with doors that cannot open fully due to the tight layout. the walk to the nearest beach has some less-than-appealing paths, which can be a bummer. Lastly, parking availability showed signs of strain during peak hours, so plan accordingly.

The outdoor pool heated to a cozy 32° felt like stepping into a warm bath, making it an ideal spot for relaxation. Rooms were clean, well-kept, and provided a comfortable base for our stay, with great breakfast options available to start the day right.
The walk to the beach had its less charming moments, with parts that didn't quite mesh with my countryside sensibilities, but it wasn't a total deal-breaker. Depending on your room choice, some may find space constraints a bit challenging, especially if you're traveling with more gear—just something to keep in mind when packing.
