The main advantage of this hotel is it's fantastic position right on the beach (not near it, or by it but ON it). The views are... More

“Ideal in every way”

Reviewed April 21, 2013 via mobile

Aramaco is one of the best beaches. And to have a hotel "right there on the beach" is unbeatable. We stayed for 5 nights over the Easter break. The pool was heated, the beach accessible from the hotel, and wonderful staff. "Rodrigues" in the restaurant not only ensured we tried the local deal coeds, but was always at hand to... More
