Alèxia S.Alèxia Solé: They serve real paella: a thin layer of rice (not with chorizo, frankfurt or whatever). In addition, you can enjoy of the beach and the sight of the coast. Desserts were good too. I'll return.

Fatima A.Fatima Al Hashimi: Great atmosphere. I personally liked it better in the warmer weather, but was still amazing. Awesome paellas. Lobster in brothy rice was good, but a little messy. Desserts were good too.

Lowie D.Lowie Deseyne: A big DISAPPOINTMENT! Had a seafood paella for two and it was barely enough. Besides that you could count the clamps and squids on one hand! So actually we paid €47 for some rice. Really a bummer.
