Categories

Cleanliness
9.2
Multiple reviewers repeatedly praised the hotel's cleanliness (e.g., 'מקום נקי', 'הכל היה נקי'), indicating a consistently high standard of housekeeping.
Service
8.6
Service is frequently praised with named staff (Sabrina at reception, lifeguard Sean, Rami) described as very helpful and kind, but there are notable complaints about slow response times, long waits at reception and for requests, and incidents like being charged for ice or a drink not received.
Location
9.5
Location and views are frequently highlighted as excellent (private beach, quiet, great view), many guests cite 'מיקום מעולה' and a pleasant setting.
Room Quality
8.8
Rooms are described as nice, spacious and well-designed, but some issues were reported such as AC not working for one guest, jacuzzi rooms lacking privacy, and an accessibility/room placement problem for a disabled guest.
Amenities
8.6
Pool and private beach are praised and considered strong assets; however there are negatives around the spa (one guest reported a minor injury after a treatment) and infrastructure complaints (tight/slow elevators). Parking was mentioned positively.
Value for Money
8.8
Mixed signals: several guests feel they received fair value ('מקבלים תמורה למחיר'), while at least one guest explicitly said 'Not worth the price' and others noted unexpected charges, leading to an overall slightly above-average score.
Food and Beverage
8.9
Food is generally praised — breakfast described as tasty and varied by multiple guests — but a few reviewers found the breakfast decline compared to previous visits or 'mediocre', so overall positive with some inconsistency.
Overall Experience
9.6
The majority of reviews describe a memorable and excellent stay ('מושלם', 'מעולה', 'Séjour exceptionnel'), thanks to atmosphere, service and facilities; a few negative incidents (spa injury, staff delays) slightly detract but do not overwhelm the overwhelmingly positive overall impression.

Pros:

It was an amazing experience, the hotel is very clean, organized and the staff completely educated. The breakfast was great with a lot of variation of foods.

Cons:

The only thing bother me was the room with jacuzzi is not private I felt too much exposed to use the jacuzzi, the area is very nice but guests from de second floor has views straight to the jacuzzi and if someone of other room is using the jacuzzi is possible to see each other. But in general it's a great hotel.
