Reviews and Ratings
The hotel offers spacious rooms with a nice sunny terrace but is let down by the uncleaned bathrooms. The service is exceptional, with warm and welcoming staff ready to assist at all times. The location provides a perfect balance of relaxation away from the hustle and bustle, though some rooms lack views and beach access. The dining options, while not expansive, are satisfactory for a 5-star establishment. The facilities are well-equipped, catering to all needs.
I had everything I needed in the rooms, from an air dryer for balconies to the relaxation I was looking for, all at the exact price advertised. The hotel could improve on maintaining the surrounding gardens and enhancing the dining experience.
The hotel had a mixed experience with slightly annoying aspects but some positives too. The rooms felt outdated and not up to standard, needing improvement, but the pre-set air conditioning was a plus. Service varied from a flippant manager to friendly staff quickly fixing issues. The location was good but not exceptional, with some privacy concerns. Dining options varied from fantastic to poor for a 5-star property. Overall, there were aspects to work on but also some highlights.
I absolutely loved my stay at this hotel! The rooms are spacious and have everything you need, especially if you snag one with a stunning view from the clubhouse. The service was top-notch, with super-fast responses and incredibly friendly staff. The location is serene, but a car is necessary to explore nearby areas. The dining experience was good but lacked a bit of a luxurious touch. Overall, a wonderful hotel with a few minor drawbacks.
The hotel offers a spacious and comfortable stay with outstanding service. The location is fabulous for a relaxing vacation, although dining options could have a bit more variety. The pool area is well-maintained and enjoyable, providing a great value for the price paid.
I had a wonderful stay at the hotel! The rooms were bright, with a nice, sunny terrace, very clean, and great for kids. They were a nice size, making our stay comfortable. The service was top-notch, with friendly and helpful staff always around. The location was beautiful, offering a luxurious pool experience and well-kept surroundings, perfect for relaxing with family. The dining was excellent overall, with beautiful settings and friendly staff. However, there were some noise issues, and the discrepancy between price and quality was noticeable. The facilities were modern and comfortable, enhancing our overall experience.
