The hospitality and helpfulness of the owner add to the charm of the place. The hotel is perfect for exploring the area with beautiful beaches and the city center reachable by car. Breakfast on the cliff with an unbeatable view is a highlight of the stay. However, there is a nearby construction site and the main road can be a bit noisy.

If you're looking for direct beach access, Margarita Apartments might not be the place for you. Although the pictures might suggest otherwise, the hotel is actually located on top of a cliff with a beautiful view over the sea. However, just a two-minute drive down the road, there is a stunning and often deserted beach. For those willing to make the trek, it's possible to reach the sea in 10 minutes by walking along the cliffs. The hotel also has a private staircase that leads directly to a small and secluded cove. For those who enjoy snorkeling, there is a perfect entry point nearby. Even though the location is quite peaceful, it's not completely isolated since the hotel is still close to the city. In case of any issues, the staff is always helpful. Overall, there are plenty of beautiful spots within walking distance of the hotel and waking up to an ocean view every morning is an absolute treat. Just be aware that beach access can be challenging in some areas and that the romantic place by the sea might not be as idyllic as it seems - it's actually a wreck with only one chair and table.
