True, the location is great. Just step across the main street onto a beautiful, wide sandy beach. You can hear the surf if you open your window. The parking was also really convenient, very close to the entrance if you lodge in the main hotel. Also we found the beds to be very comfortable and checked the label so we could buy one ourselves (beautyrest):) free coffee in the morning and kind staff. There is an outstanding Italian (as in Italian born staff) market next-door that makes amazing cappuccino and sandwiches. Across the street is a wine store and three more restaurants a stones throw. A really good deal overall!
