Review — key points
• Food: Limited hot options and hot meals often arrived cold because of long queues; good variety of salads and cold dishes; no table service for drinks — you collect your own.
• Accommodation: Villas need refurbishment; sash window in our villa detached when opened, which felt unsafe.
• Access and location: Spectacular hillside setting with excellent views; however there is a long, steep climb with many steps down to the beach and back up to the villas, so not suitable for those who struggle with stairs. A tractor-and-trailer shuttle runs to the beach at regular intervals if you don’t want to walk.
• Pool and sunbathing: Attractive pool areas, but loungers fill up quickly — even in October you need to be fast to secure one.
Overall impression and tip
Lovely setting and decent facilities, but expect practical frustrations: arrive prepared to queue for hot food, avoid if you have mobility issues, and check the villa for maintenance problems on arrival.
