18.8/10 Exceptional! (92 reviews)
Excellent breakfast, huge showers, cozy beds with lots of space. The social scene is mixed with mostly French guests who tend to stay amongst themselves. Overall the property itself is so comfortable and provides everything you could ask for both short and long term stays.

19.2/10 Exceptional! (55 reviews)
Great stay! We’ve stayed here 2 times before and love it.
Amenities are beautiful. Very exclusive and quiet for a romantic stay or just a quiet time in a high class resort.
Staff, once again, are very young and with a high turnover, showing inexperience not proactive. If you are by the pool, no one offers anything, you have to hunt the staff, as if they were too shy and hiding from work.
But my family and I would return it for sure!
