"Absolutely incredible stay. One of the best hotels I have ever stayed in - from the rooftop pool, amazing breakfast, top class spa, attentive staff and brilliant location"
"The stay was amazing! Joana at the front desk was super helpful. Ana at the spa gave an amazing massage. The property is beautiful and very clean. The room was spacious and was very comfortable."
"This hotel is beautiful, with amazing service and a stunning pool! The breakfast offered plenty of variety, including healthy options, and everything was well prepared. The only downside is that it’s a bit of a walk to the old town and not very close to restaurants—but since we enjoy walking, it worked perfectly for us. Overall, a beautiful place to stay, and we’d definitely come back!"
"The previous reviews left us with no expectations of what to expect but the staff, room and property exceeded our expectations. We had a wonderful stay and would stay at this hotel again. "
