Nearly perfect. The food was phenomenal, service was always friendly and with a smile. Location was perfect. The only thing I can even think to criticize is that this place had everything! It’s very hard to leave and explore the rest of the island!

We were only able to stay for one night because it was a stop over on our way home but it was a lovely place. We were able to eat dinner and breakfast at the buffet, which was amazing! The choices were great! The beach and pools looked great!

If you’re after a quiet spot for chill holiday time this is the place for you. Be aware this is a very windy beach! Surfers use it for their activities plus it’s very stoned sand in most areas…

Could not recommend this place more! We will definitely be going back. The staff was phenomenal, when we arrived we were greeted by a concierge who took our bags inside/to our rooms and made us a mimosa while we filled out our check in details. We did the half board so we got a buffet breakfast and dinner each night that had so many options and were very delicious! The front desk also made us a reservation for the el la carte dinner which was also free. The staff didn’t hesitate when we asked them to book us a taxi to check out city centre as well as booking an early taxi to get us to the port the morning we checked out, also supplying us with a box breakfast to go. Highly recommend this place! Absolutely loved every minute of our stay!

Very nice hotel overall! The staff has been very helpful and nice. The buffet was great, and there was gluten free options available. Room was very clean. Beach bar was a bit pricey but it has a great view of the sea and the mountains. Would definitely recommend!
