Chur, the villa was fantastic, heaps clean, and modern. The staff were super nice, but the pool area could use more shade for comfort, eh?

We had a blast staying here! The villas were modern and had everything we needed for a fun group getaway. The beach was just a short walk away, and we enjoyed some beach tennis and hiking nearby. Plus, the staff were super helpful throughout our stay—made our trip even better!
There was a misunderstanding about our appointment, which wasn’t resolved quickly, and it put a damper on the day. They ended up acknowledging the mix-up but it was a hassle.

Superior kitchen amenities, access to spa treatments, spacious workout facilities
Noise disturbances from overcrowding in common areas!!! Outdoor pool closing at 8 PM is simply ridiculous!!! Lack of supervision for whirlpool areas creates discomfort for adult guests!!! More shaded seating around the pool would have been appreciated!!!

Super chill getaway with great vibes
We had such a relaxing time! The indoor pool was a highlight, perfect for unwinding after a day at the nearby beaches. Staff was always super friendly and helpful, even charged our phones for us! Food at the poolside bar was solid, but it could've had more variety. The area was so peaceful yet close to everything!

Tranquil Escape by the Beach
Our family enjoyed a serene two-night stay in a well-equipped two-bedroom apartment, featuring comfy beds and a modern kitchen. The stunning beach nearby made mornings unforgettable! Make sure to reserve sunbeds early, as guests tend to overtake them.

missingWrote a review on Jun 27early pool closure
Unfortunately, the outdoor pool closes at 8 PM, which limits evening swimming opportunities. Guests also noted that the rooftop bar wasn't open , and the pool bar's food service hours could have been extended beyond 5:30 PM. while the breakfast quality was decent, it lacked variety, which left some wanting more in terms of options.
