This review could have easily earned a perfect 5-star rating. The beach itself is truly breathtaking, with crystal clear waters and pristine sand stretching out as far as the eye can see. The staff were incredibly friendly and accommodating, always eager to assist us in any way they could. The only downside for me was the presence of stones on the beach, which detracted slightly from the overall experience. However, even with this minor inconvenience, I would still highly recommend this beach to anyone looking for a truly unforgettable day in the sun.
