St Breca is often praised for its excellent location, with many guests highlighting the easy access to the beach, shops, and restaurants-typically just a short walk away. The rooms are generally considered lovely and clean, equipped with TVs offering many channels. A simple but good buffet breakfast featuring fresh fruit, cereals, yoghurts, and breads is widely appreciated; however, some guests felt that certain rooms were a bit small.

great stay and friendly hosts

seafront location friendly owners
the location was very close to the seafront. cafes and restaurants were also a few minutes walk away. the owners were very friendly and polite. i would book again at this place.
i thought the room was small and i had problems with the shower. it made such a racket. i could not have a shower when i left because i was worried to make too much noise since i left early.
