8/10 Good
"Checking in was the most confusing process I've ever encountered. They still have last year's check in instructions up, which are no longer valid. It was a nightmare finding the front desk. The apartment was clean and okay. The kitchen is not equipped to make a proper meal. Washing machine doesn't work. Sadly we were very disappointed."

"Cannot recommend this hotel enough. The staff were ALL wonderful and so helpful. The concierge made multiple bookings for us for all activities and recommended wonderful restaurants. The whatsapp service once you are there is brilliant. The property itself is idyllic, so beautiful and relaxing. The treatments in the spa were excellent. You are also taken everywhere by mini Fiats or golf carts, so super easy to get around the vast property. We also LOVED the bikes. The restaurants on site are wonderful and the breakfast is heavenly! We also did a padel clinic and yoga class (included), both were truly incredible. A special thank you to the front desk, the concierge and to the lovely gentlemen providing pool service too. We will be back in October and many times again. Thank you to everyone at the hotel who made our stay unforgettable."
