5/5
Liked: The quiet and elegance. The staff were very friendly, helpful and welcoming. There were many days when we felt like we were the only guests. The meals were delicious. Loved the pods on the cliffs and the saltwater pool.
Heads-up for parents: As much as we enjoyed a restful stay away from the crowds, it was really necessary to take taxis everywhere. Dinners were pricey, but worth it.
-
4/5
Liked: Great place to relax. Everything was good.
Watch out: Please note that there is no beach at this hotel.
-
4.5/5Fantastic, relaxing luxury.
Liked: Stunning place, gives solid White Lotus vibes. Amazing rooms, impressive main building, lovely (multiple) swimming pools, with many more places to sunbathe than there were guests. Astonishingly comfortable (and huge) bed.
Watch out: Not much variety in the restaurant if you're staying for a week. The meal packages are deeply confusing (e.g. there's a lot not included in the breakfast deal) and not great value vs a la carte.
-
5/5Great hotel, stunning location and very…
Liked: Really nice hotel, the place was supposedly full but you’d never know! Felt like we were the only guests there. V peaceful. Staff attentive, pool great (and empty!), only had a few meals in but they were v nice.
