“​Gorgeous resort with luxurious potential, though overpriced on the essentials”

LikedThe room was great and well worth the price. The pools and sea views were stunning, and the infinity pool truly delivered on the infinity experience. Housekeeping was top-notch; the room was kept immaculately clean and well cared for. The bed was exceptionally comfortable. Amar à la carte restaurant was a standout—the food, the vibe, the sea view, and the attentive staff made for truly wonderful evenings. The hotel’s landscaping and botanical gardens are gorgeous. The buffet breakfast was fantastic, with a huge, delicious variety. Across the board, the staff was consistently attentive, giving a true sense of luxury, and ordering via the web app made things very convenient.

DislikedDespite the mature, well-established infrastructure, the daily operations didn't always feel professional—more like an "all-exclusive" luxury concept than an all-inclusive one. The minibar was entirely paid, and they only provided one complimentary bottle of water per day, which the staff even explicitly pointed out during check-in. We ended up spending a significant amount of money just on water at €4 a bottle. Inside the room, towel hooks were lacking, and the layout/distance between the bathroom and toilet was ergonomically inconvenient. Finally, the spa was completely at an extra charge and very expensive; all the packages offered under their "longevity" concept felt heavily overpriced.

“One of a kind”

LikedPremises location, garden, sea views, cleanliness, yoga classes. However, the staff at the reception , at restaurants (a la carte side), at spa made the big difference in accomodating tourists during their stay.

DislikedAir conditioning limited to 23C, removal of personal stuff from the sun beds after someone is away for less than an hour (e.g. while at a yoga class), beach towels not always available in the morning, some rude servers at the breakfast (the only man I saw the whole time of my stay serving on the buffet terrace).

“Perfect in every way!”

LikedI'm trying to find the words to adequately express the experience. I could pile on the superlatives, but I won't. Let's just say it exceeded my expectations in every way. The staff was truly wonderful, all of them. From every simple "Hello" and "Good morning" to trying to make every moment perfect for the guests. The room was absolutely dreamy! I slept like a baby every night, with the crashing waves and the wind in the palm trees as background music. Don't get me started on the food...I'm still reminiscing the lobster linguini and the white wine while watching the sunset. And finally, a small detail I forgot to ask them about. The whole building had the most seductive and intriguing scent, I wish I knew what it was.

“Magnificent stay”

LikedIts just perfect! Loved every single moment in there wish if I stayed longer ! Perfect location with wonderful views and a very nice beach .. the breakfast was great too .. the room layout was good and it was very clean and comfortable.. the staff were extra nice ! Would definitely love to come again and stay longer

DislikedThe only downside to me that they informed me that they do a strict policy regarding reserve the sun beds .. even though people was still do reserve and no one did a thing about it It made it difficult to find a good spot.
