Large rooms, great breakfast buffet, perfect location to visit the island but a bit far of the city centre (15min walk). The swimming pool area needs to be refurbished and the hotel surrounding seems not being well-kept outside summer period.

We stayed at The Lince for our anniversary and birthday and had a wonderful time. The people at the reception desk are most kind and helpful. Our room was large and very clean and has a window that opens to the ocean breeze. We had a top floor ocean, city, mountain view (6th floor) and watched the ships come in... More
