We had a beautiful room with a private pool. It was very big and comfortable. The pool and spa area was lovely and the food was excellent. It is in a quiet part of town, easy drive to everything, but not walkable. The staff is very friendly and attentive. Definitely recommend.

worst honeymoon stay
This was our second night of honeymoon. We stayed at another 5 star hotel on our first night and there really is no comparison. There was no honeymoon feel. We had the worst experience staying at this hotel. It is definitely not 5 star as advertised. The hotel is understaffed. We had to carry our own luggage, yet other guests were offered this service. Took ages to get service at the bar. Wifi didn’t work in the rooms. Property not as good as the pictures. Very disappointed won’t recommend and won’t stay here again.

Not sure I would recommend it
Nice place but in need of serious refurbishment. The room is in need of serious repainting and replacement of curtains and upholster of lamps, bed and wall papaer. The place is more of a complex of flats reviewed as hotel but it has not a luxury feeling. The dining room feels as they just thrown chairs and tables and there is a lack of personality

Very relaxing
Lovely place in quiet, residential area, great spa facilities. Very attentive and helpful staff. The only thing I would have changed is the wooden floor in the showers - it smells as it’s probably rotten underneath- but this in no way hindered our very relaxing stay.
