Steven 10/10

Perfect Hotel & Location for a much needed relaxing break

Pros: Our Room was perfect, firm mattress and plenty of soft pillows, view of the garden. fully air conditioned, clean, fresh and the turn down service everyday was a nice luxury. The breakfast was good quality and covered all appetites, fresh fruit, pastries, hot cooked breakfast, pancakes, cereals. We ate at the pool side bar and the food was freshly prepared and very tasty. The Staff and Service were fantastic, warm friendly smiles and nothing was too much trouble. Free towels and sun loungers with cushion by the pool just added to the luxury element. The pool water was refreshingly cool, the perfect antidote to warm Sunkissed days pool side. The hotel was not busy, but that was a massive positive. we needed a relaxing chilled break and boy did we get one. Loved the hotel, Love the region, would definitely return.

Cons: Nothing. a fantastic trip.
