We stayed in the suites, which were huge. I think there’s only one on each floor. It was a lot of volume to cool, but the Air conditioning was able to work really well in one of our two rooms and it worked OK in the other. Considering that we were sleeping 4 people in each room, he should’ve had a better sofa bed. The slots were so bent and broken, and the mattress is only like 2 inches thick. My teenage son did not get a good nights sleep because of this. They were nice enough to bring a second 2 inch mattress making it thicker but it was still sagging. Considering these were suites of the hotel, they should have the nicest mattresses for the sofa bed. Then one of my other teenage son slept in the second night and his back and shoulder were sore for days. Property itself is beautiful with the swimming pool and the incredible views. The staff was nice. I think they just need to address the sofa bed issue. Sleep is usually the number one priority for travelers.

Utmärkt personal och trevligt bemötande i receptionen. Personalen i restauranten mycket vänlig, men de talade mycket bristfällig engelska vilket gav upphov till missförstånd. Frukosten var inte den bästa. Inga grönsaker och bristande variation på bröd, ost, youghurt, müsli etc. Ojämn kvalite på middagsmaten. Saknade möjlighet att äta frukost och middag på terassen. Stora luftiga rum med terass mot ett trivsamt poolområde. Ingen service vidpoolområdet. Personal kunde gärna ha torkat av dynor och solstolar efter regn. Bra och kostnadsfria parkeringsmöjligheter.

O Hotel tem um enquandramento paisagístico excecional, onde impera o silêncio e o ar puro. Cenário ideal para uns dias de descanso retemperador.Os funcionários foram bastante atenciosos e muito simpáticos. Tratando-se de um espaço classificado com 4 estrelas, duas notas menos positivas que nos parecem merecer um upgrade: a falta de conservação de algumas áreas e a reduzida diversidade de produtos ao pequeno almoço, nomeadamente naturais e autóctones. Apesar destes reparos, iremos aconselhar o hotel e, havendo oportunidade, tencionamos voltar.

Inmejorable

Hotel espectacular, precioso, cuidado hasta el mínimo detalle tanto dentro como fuera. Desayuno sensacional, piscina chulisima, muy cómoda para ir con niños, hamacas abundantes, si están todas cogidas ponen más (esto nunca lo había visto en ningún hotel) Spa pequeño pero aceptable, personal muy amable. Cocteles en el chiringuito impresionantes. Lo único negativo es la carta de comida del chiringuito y el sofá cama de los niños que hacía mucho ruido con cada movimiento. el resto genial. Increíble

Hotel muito bonito, agradável no entanto tem espaço a muitas melhorias. Situa-se numa zona com uma paisagem maravilhosa. Os funcionários são simpáticos mas nota-se alguma desmotivação. Ao longo do hotel nota-se que existe uma falta enorme de manutenção pelo espaço. As camas e cadeiras necessitam de renovação e o espaço necessita de uma pintura. O pequeno almoço não é nada mau, tem uma variedade intermédia. Apesar de tudo gostei do hotel e da zona, foi uma experiência positiva.

Excelente estadia com um quarto espaçoso, pequeno almoço muito saboroso e um bom spa. No entanto, é de salientar que devido a algum tipo de falha, tanto a internet como a televisão não funcionavam e o hotel precisa seriamente de manutenção pois toda a mobília e carpetes se encontram visivelmente em mau estado.

SPA falhado

Boas.. a expectativas eram grandes dai me ter desiludido um pouco... Recepcionista com falta de experiência... Não nos informaram de nada...so nos deu o cartão do quarto. Tivemos de ser nós a perguntar tudo... Nenhuma informação neste site de que seria preciso tocas para uso da piscina... O nosso grande motivo que nos levou a escolher este hotel foi o SPA... que não estava a funcionar... apenas a piscina interior e com agua fria 😟 De resto tudo normal... quarto bem limpo e arrumado nas duas noites que ficamos um bom pequeno almoço... Mas a precisar de melhoramentos por todo o hotel...desde paredes que ja merecem uma pintura a alcatifas que precisam de uma boa lavagem... Infelizmente so usamos este hotel para durmir e tomar o peq.almoco...

A chegada não correu nada bem, pois após uma longa viagem e tentando chegar a tempo para check-in, estivemos mais de 15m à espera de alguém na receção e o telef. tb estava ali, sendo impossível falar com alguém. Empregados atenciosos, limpeza e espaços agradáveis. Pequeno almoço razoável e serviço de mesa ao jantar com algumas lacunas. Local agradável e sossegado para descansar.

A good stay, the staff was very friendly. Breakfast can be improved. Not many options for a vegan. As easy fix whit all vegan items that are available and very common that can replace "common" dairy products, from milk, butter or cheese.

Fim de semana muito agradável que nos fez esquecer por momentos as vicissitudes da vida e este flagelo que nos assombra mundialmente, de seu nome covid19. Funcionários sempre muito prestaveis e amaveis. Pequeno almoço foi servido no terraço por escolha nossa( novas normas assim o obrigam) e fomos deliciados com produtos de boa qualidade. Foi uma experiência diferente mas muito agradável. A voltar muitas vezes, com toda a certeza.
