4/5 - Good

Verified traveler

The Camelia Hotel restaurant was very cozy and tasty. There is an italian restaurante called Eatalia. Family business, small, very tasty. Also the upscale Roslin restaurant was very good; Pricy, but excelent.

One thing I forgot to mention, which is a definite positive, when we woke on the Sunday morning and opened the blinds, we were welcomed with blue sky and sunshine and the most wonderful view of the sea!
