Reviews and Ratings
I recently stayed at this hotel, and it does have its perks. The location is absolutely stunning, overlooking the Mediterranean Sea. The rooms are quite spacious and comfortable, perfect for relaxation. However, I did find the service to be a bit inconsistent, and the dining options could definitely use some improvement. Overall, it's a beautiful spot, but there are a few areas that need attention.
The hotel enjoys a beautiful hillside location with stunning views of the Mediterranean Sea, and the pool area is truly a highlight. The rooms were nice and clean, but I felt they could be more luxurious for the price. Service was friendly, but my pick-up experience was less than ideal. Overall, the value for money seems a bit off, particularly with some dining issues that need addressing.
I had a lovely stay overall! The hotel is in a fantastic location with beautifully landscaped grounds that provide a peaceful atmosphere. The rooms were comfortable with all modern amenities, although some felt a little dated compared to what I'd expect from a 5-star hotel. The staff was exceptionally friendly and accommodating, but the dining experience fell a bit short with limited options and some issues. Overall, it was a decent value for money, but there are definitely areas for improvement.

I had a lovely stay at this hotel, which boasted a stunning hillside location with beautiful views of the blue Mediterranean Sea. The rooms were clean and surprisingly spacious – I even received a complimentary upgrade! The staff was incredibly friendly and helpful, making my visit enjoyable. However, the dining could use some improvements, and while the amenities were decent, there were a few operational hiccups. Overall, the experience was value for money.
