Spacious Comfort

My stay in the Standard Double Room was elevated by the generous space. With a large bed and a thoughtful desk area, I felt right at home. The rain shower was a standout, making for an incredibly refreshing start each morning.

Breakfast Delight

I was truly impressed by the breakfast offerings. The avocado toast paired with a delicious fruit salad was not only healthy but also filled with flavor. It provided the perfect fuel for a day of exploring.

The Hotel Sansebay has a wonderful staff and is situated near the beautiful beach, making it easy to explore the area. The deluxe double rooms, however, may not provide the expected sea views and can be quite noisy due to nearby foot traffic and gathering spots. The breakfast could be pricey for what’s offered, but the staff's attentiveness and the hotel's location make up for some of the downsides.
