Waves Hotel offers a bright and airy atmosphere, with splendid ocean views that are perfect for watching sunsets, along with friendly service that makes you feel special. While the rooms are beautifully decorated and the amenities are great, the dining experience could be enhanced with a wider selection. The location is ideal for relaxation but some facilities are currently under renovation which dampens the experience slightly.

We had a fantastic time at Waves Hotel! The check-in was smooth, and our room was ready when we arrived. Cleanliness was impressive throughout, and we really enjoyed the excellent food options available. While the hotel is perfect for those looking for a quiet getaway, the lack of late-night dining and limited evening entertainment made it feel a bit too subdued for my taste. Overall, it was great value for money, and I would certainly consider returning.
