Reviews and Ratings
The hotel offers beautifully furnished and very comfortable rooms, more like an apartment than just a bedroom. The staff are incredibly friendly and helpful. The location is exceptional, with easy accessibility and a variety of activities available. The dining experience is top-notch with excellent options. Overall, a great value for money with luxurious amenities.
The hotel offers amazing rooms that are adapted for handicap accessibility, but the location is a bit dark and steep outside the building. The staff is incredibly friendly and helpful, always going the extra mile. The beautiful location, though in need of renovation, provides a fantastic range of activities. The dining experience is lovely, but some areas like the Cantina appear old and tired.
I had a fantastic stay at the hotel! The room was excellent, complete with a balcony for soaking up the sun most of the day, strong WiFi, and efficient air conditioning. It was specially assigned to us with an adapted bathroom for handicap accessibility, featuring a very comfortable bed. The service was top-notch, with helpful and charming staff always ready to assist. The location was great, close to the airport and highways yet secluded enough for a relaxing time. The dining experience was a mix of outstanding dishes but slightly repetitive options. Overall, a great value for money with some areas that could be improved.
