Excellent place to stay
Pros:

The staff were absolutely amazing. Really approachable and friendly but unobtrusive. I've rarely experienced such professionalism. The quality and variety of the spa treatments was second to none. And sitting drinking my morning coffee overlooking the view was sublime.
Parking was a little awkward (not a bad thing, it just meant a bit more manoeuvring was needed. The electric charging had enough space for slightly longer vehicles.

Cons:

I know veganism is still very much in a minority, but the movement is growing, so I feel a little more variety, especially with the breakfast and evening buffets, could be considered (eg; the chia in yoghurt could have a vegan alternative as well). Otherwise, the quality of the food was excellent and the vegan options that were available were very tasty.

We enjoyed the privacy in a quiet, clean and relaxed environment
Pros:

A very relaxed, quiet and clean resort. Very kind staff. The heated and covered outside pool is perfect for a stay outside summertime. Spacious rooms with a large terrace. The small kitchen is well equiped to make a snack or even dinner.

Cons:

The diversity and quality of the food was good but not spectacular.
We had expected more different dishes and some meat and fish straight from the grill.
The dinner is excluding drinks. A "drink package" including wine and beer costs 6 euros for adults and 3 for kids.
