Reviews and Ratings
The hotel's rooms were wonderful, and the breakfast and restaurant were excellent. I enjoyed having a private terrace, which was large and very comfortable. The rooms are spacious, creating a pleasant stay. The service was very friendly and helpful, and the location, despite being a bit tricky to reach suggested places, was beautiful and tranquil. The dining experience was delightful, with delicious and varied choices. Overall, a great value for money stay surrounded by lovely countryside.
I had a pleasant stay at this hotel overall. The room was good, but for 250 euros a night, I expected a jacuzzi bathtub and a more varied lunch menu. The service was exceptional; the staff were friendly, helpful, and made my stay a joy. The location, while lovely with a nice swimming pool, felt a bit secluded. The dining experience was enjoyable with delicious a la carte options, but the presence of flies during breakfast was off-putting.
This hotel is a delightful place to stay, offering clean and well-decorated rooms with a private terrace in the main house. The service was exceptional, with staff members who were extremely helpful and welcoming. The location, almost down to the coast, provides a peaceful environment to relax. The dining experience is superb, offering delicious and plentiful choices. A true gem with a few minor drawbacks that can easily be overlooked.
