Pros:

The beds were comfortable and the balcony had a great view! The staff were fantastic! They were very kind and helped us when a family member got badly sunburned. They cut fresh aloe and brought an ice bucket with compress. The view is incredible from all areas!

Cons:

The hotel was clean and comfortable but was in need of touch ups and updates. The bathroom sink leaked water out of the basin when used, tiles in the bathroom missing, the bathroom door would get stuck when opening to walk in. It wasn’t anything major but if they did updates it would be an exceptional hotel.

Das Preis-Leistungsverhältnis stimmt nicht
Pros:

Sehr schöne Aussicht, aufgrund der erhöhten Lage. Auch der Pool läd zum entspannen ein. Das Personal ist sehr freundlich und bemüht.

Cons:

Wie bereits mehrfach von anderen Gästen erwähnt, ist die Zufahrtsstraße zum Hotel eine Zumutung. Ohne Allrad keine Chance und im dunklen eine Herausforderung.

Die Zimmer, bzw. die gesamte Anlage ist ziemlich in die Jahre gekommen. Es gehört komplett renoviert (Zimmer, Bäder, Restaurants und Poolanlage)

Das Frühstück war geschmacklich gut, allerdings sind die Größen der Gerichte nicht zufriedenstellend. Man kann sich eine Option von der Karte auswählen - zusätzliche Gerichte kosten 10€, Obst oder Toast gibt es nur gegen Bezahlung.
