Razoável, não voltaria mais
Pros:

Razoável, hotel só tem escadas pra todo lado, sem café da manhã e precisa urgente de reformas na área comum e piscinas, tirando o atendimento do Sr Alfredo, o resto não vale a pena, eu não voltaria mais…. Para quem tem problemas de mobilidade, idosos, crianças eu não aconselho. Hotel a noite escuro demais…

Local histórico
Pros:

Mesmo não tendo serviço de quarto, nem café da manhã, a estadia compensou pela vista incrível e única do mar, a história do local, que existe há mais de 30 anos e já foi o hotel mais badalado da região, com o tempo perdeu status devido a concorrência. Pra quem gosta de locais antigos e com história, por onde já passaram personagens importantes e famosos, vale a pena. E também pela localização privilegiada próxima a vila com lojas e artesanatos, a igreja local, praça, é ótimo.

Hospedagem Perfeita
Pros:

Experiência incrível, vista deslumbrante, staff dedicados que sempre fizeram de tudo para bem atender. Aptos amplos e confortáveis, roupas de cama, colchões de excelente qualidade e impecavelmente limpos. As banheiras de hidromassagens são um tanto quanto antigas, mas não consideramos isto como motivo para rebaixar a nota, devido a tantas outras qualidades. Destaque para a cordialidade e receptividade dos funcionários, sem exceção. Gravamos vídeos e tiramos fotos com eles de recordação, pois fizeram a diferença em nossa estadia. A vista é de tirar o fôlego, independentemente do Apto escolhido. Recomendamos e voltaremos assim que possível.

Horrid hotel
Pros:

I have never regretted making a booking more than this one. When we first arrived we were shown a room with no functioning air conditioning, in a questionable state of repair and a bed that was just horrible, when we complained about the situation were shown a room that smelled like mold with ants all over and same horrid bed the staff tried to pass this of as an upgrade, the hotel staff then proceeded to send us to a room where again we had fault air con, toilet could only flush once every 40-50 minutes, shower water was brown, water taps in the bathroom weren’t working and of course ants again everywhere. We asked for a refund so we could go another place, but was refused. In the end the room was so bad we decided to go somewhere else and just pay that ourselves to get away from there. At 120 euro per night we did not expect supreme luxury but we did expect a clean well kept room with a decent bed.

We subsequently raised the issue with hotels.com, and the hotel proceeded to lie about the the interaction claiming they had offered an upgrade we refused, despite having taken the “upgrade” and finding it in possibly even worse condition than the first room. We ended up talking to locals during our stay who confirmed that the place wasn’t what is used to be.

Should this happen to you don’t expect much help from hotels.com.

We loved everything about this hotel, I feel as if we were in Capri or St Barts the view from the room, the balcony, the restroom, the stairs. The staff and the owners are simply the best. We will definitely be back!

Pros:

The view from Apartment 10 is gorgeous, and the breakfast was perfect. Also the staff were incredibly friendly. Our main complaint is that we wish it was cleaner. The window seal by the bed had cobwebs and dust on one side. And the Jacuzzi had a weird smell and nasty little bits came out of the jets. I reported it to the receptionist and they offered to swap us rooms but with one day left we just didnt use the jacuzzi again. Also the hot water on the shower ran out super fast.

Pros:

Super cool accommodations - we’ve stayed in two different units - both had some amazing qualities. Last one had a veranda at least as big as the very large room itself. This unit is very much like two separate rooms with a very spacious bathroom. The porch here is much smaller but actually has a more expansive view of the water.
