I was really impressed with Aqua Hotel! The warm hospitality of Maggie made us feel right at home. The location is fantastic, just a short stroll to the beach, and the pools were a nice touch for relaxation. However, while the rooms were clean, they could use some updates and better facilities for cooking. Overall, it’s a charming place with great value for families.

My stay at the Aqua Hotel was truly memorable, thanks to Maggie's warm hospitality and the overall cleanliness of the place. The close proximity to the beach made it easy for us to enjoy sunny days by the ocean. However, our room had a few issues, like noise from other guests and an unpleasant bathroom odor, which detracted from the experience a bit. Overall, I think it offers great value for the price.
