What a hidden gem! Clean, well maintained, comfy beds and lovely rooms. The pool area is lovely too. Deserves more than 3* as a hotel. Much needed few days of calm and rest after a wedding on the mainland. Will definitely return

Located right on the beach, this property also had a lovely pool. Spacious rooms had an amazing view of the ocean from our balcony. Close to everything, the beach, shopping, and excellent dining. The staff was wonderful and provided everything we needed for delightful experience. A delicious breakfast was also included with our stay. I would highly recommend this hotel!

Family holiday
This is a cosy, peaceful, quiet small hotel with a big flowery garden and a clean pool. The staff is friendly and helpful, every guest request is fulfilled.
The cost of the hotel is very reasonable, it is worth the price very much.
The busy town and the lively sea promenade is close, but this hotel is an excellent place to have a calm and enjoyable holiday. It was like a little oasis for us 😃

BEAUTIFUL hidden gem of a hotel! Myself and my Fiancé stayed here for 3 nights in the Junior Penthouse Suite and it totally exceeded our expectations and more! Immaculately clean! Very spacious, comfortable bed! And the jetted tub was so lovely to relax in.
Stunning views of the sea, staff are so helpful and friendly! The hotel grounds are exceptionally well kept and the pool very inviting!
Thank you so much for a relaxing break away! We will absolutely be back and for much longer next time!

Die Unterkunft an sich war super. Sehr große und schick eingerichtete Zimmer, Meerblick, alles war sauber und man hat sich wohl gefühlt. Die Promenade mit Geschäften, Einkaufsmöglichkeiten etc. ist direkt vor der Tür. Trotzdem hatte man Nachts keinen Lärm.
Die Gastgeber sind sehr freundlich und heißen einen direkt Willkommen.
Der Pool war klasse und es hat sich dort gut entspannen lassen.
Lediglich die Anzahl der Parkplätze könnte mehr sein, da man abends ab ca. 21 Uhr auf der Straße parken muss da alles belegt ist.

Værelset var fuldstændig som på billederne, og det lå tæt på byen, men stadig stille. Der var ingen problemer med indtjekning, eller i øvrigt under opholdet.
Eneste "knast" var at der ikke måtte medbringes drikke eller snacks mv. ved poolen.

Iso huone ja taivaallinen tilava kylppäri, hyvällä suihkulla. Todella positiivinen yllätys koko hotelli, alueella, mikä ei ehkä kaikista idyllisin ollut. Musiikki pauhasi jostain rantakadulta yömyöhään, mutta ikkunaluukut ja ikkunat kiinni sen sai vaimennettua. Lisäksi hotellissa oli ystävällinen herra respassa ja hotellin alueella parkkipaikka. Suositten tätä hotellia.

L hôtel en lui même est bien. Jolie chambre avec vue mer, lit comfortable, douche à l italienne. Belle piscine. Pas testé le petit dej a 8 euros qui avait l air inintéressant. Par contre pas de plage décente à proximité, environnement abominable ( tourisme de masse, musique forte), à fuir si vous voulez du calme et de l’authenticité.

Clean hotel, beachfront, recently refurbished rooms, good air-conditioning and friendly staff. Breakfast is good for the size of the hotel. The check-in is still manual as it is a one-person doing everything, and invoices are still being prepared in writing, so it is a slow check-in, although a very quick check-out. There are no beach/swimming pool towels, so you need to bring your own.

Our stay at Petra Beach Hotel was lovely! The rooms are so comfortable, clean and the decoration/colours are beautiful.
The staff was really helpful.
It is located centrally but still a bit away from the noise, so that it is calm.
Before booking I read that it is worth it to pay more for a room with sea view and that was so true!
Would definitely stay here agai .

Plutôt positif !
Idéalement situé, le jardin avec piscine donne directement sur la mer. L’hôtel est également situé très près du centre ville. Attention peu de plage de sable aux alentours. La piscine n’était pas chauffée
Petit déjeuner classique mais peu cher (7€)
Par contre il ne peut pas être payé en même temps que la chambre et seulement en espèces. Idem pour les éventuelles consommations au bar
