Reviews and Ratings
The hotel offers stunning views and a very spacious layout, which is great for relaxation, and the friendly staff really enhances the experience. However, the dining options can become repetitive after a few days, and the cold pools may not suit everyone. Overall, it provides a solid getaway at a budget-friendly price.
The hotel offers stunning views and has some lovely pools, but the dining experience can be inconsistent and the rooms didn't meet the initial standards. While the service in certain areas was friendly, there were notable lapses in attention from specific staff members, which detracted from our overall experience.
Overall, I had a lovely time at this hotel with its stunning sea views and spacious rooms. The friendly and accommodating staff, especially in the dining area, made for a pleasant experience. However, the dining options could use more variety, particularly for lunch and snacks, as they felt repetitive after a few days. The steep terrain can also be a challenge for some guests, which might not suit everyone.
My stay at the hotel was filled with ups and downs. The stunning views truly made my experience more enjoyable, and the variety of pools offered a nice escape. However, the service left much to be desired, with some very rude interactions and mismanagement during check-in. Dining options were plentiful, but the quality sometimes fell short, especially towards the end of the week. Overall, I appreciate the beautiful setting, but I wish the customer service matched the scenery.
The hotel is beautifully located on a cliff with breathtaking views, which made the experience truly special. The rooms are clean and comfortable but could use some upgrades. The dining experience was hit-or-miss, with the buffet lacking variety and freshness at times. While the service had its standout moments, some interactions left a lot to be desired. Overall, it's a lovely place for relaxation and enjoying the scenery but be prepared for a few hiccups along the way.
