Reviews and Ratings
My stay at the hotel had its ups and downs. The room, though not particularly clean with some brown stains around the door frame leading to the bathroom, was still lovely. However, the missing promised bottle of wine was a letdown. On the bright side, the room itself was fantastic with great views, a comfy bed, and everything you'd need. The overall cost didn't quite match the room quality as I've stayed in nicer rooms for similar prices. Some furniture in the main seating area looked worn out and ripped.
The room, despite being an 'executive double,' wasn't furnished as expected and its proximity to the pool made it uncomfortable for sleep. The friendly staff went above and beyond to ensure a super-safe experience with thorough safety measures in place.
I had a pleasant stay at the hotel with clean and comfortable rooms and very friendly staff. Although there were some handles missing in the room and it wasn't set up as requested upon arrival, I would still highly recommend it.
The hotel had some pleasant surprises but also a few letdowns. The rooms, though nicer than expected from the photos, fell short in cleanliness and maintenance. The service offered some delightful touches but also disappointments with missed opportunities for assistance. The location was wonderful for relaxation and exploration, yet some aspects could have been improved. The dining experience was a mix of positives and negatives. Overall, a stay with ups and downs.
