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.
Carpet was a bit old and dirt and really brought down the quality of the place. Everything else was fine but the carpet gave a yucky feeling so I wouldn’t come back until they have proper flooring.
The breakfast had a good selection but I wish they didn’t have the weird rule of not allowing to have breakfast in the outside area which is just next to the breakfast area. Apartment lot it was the “boss’s rules”. Are we children and not allowed outside with the pretty view? The swimming pool and spa was good and not very busy.

Décevant
Décevant pour le prix payé
J’ai séjourné dans cet hôtel en pensant profiter d’un certain standing étant donné le tarif élevé, mais j’ai été assez déçu. Les matelas sont inconfortables et mériteraient clairement d’être changés – pas à la hauteur d’un hôtel de ce niveau. Par ailleurs, le manque d’informations à l’arrivée (sur les services, les horaires, ou les équipements) a rendu le séjour moins agréable.
Le cadre ou l’emplacement peut être correct, mais cela ne justifie pas le prix demandé. Rapport qualité-prix très discutable
Achamos fraco para um hotel de 4 estrelas
Ac não funcionava, interruptor do meu lado da cama não funcionava
Cama extra era extremamente desconfortável.

Comtras un valor de la estadia y hotel cobra mas de lo acordado. Lamentable no contrsre mas por este medio
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.
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 con buenas instalaciones en un entorno natural tranquilo. Las vistas espectaculares. Las habitaciones cómodas y de buen tamaño.
La piscina quizás se queda un poco pequeña y el spa es muy sencillo. En cualquier caso es una opción muy recomendable si estás de paso o buscas tranquilidad y desconexión
Excelente todo o atendimento e condições de alojamento. Os quartos no R/C com acesso à piscina são fantásticos ! Especialmente para quem tem crianças/bebe.
Tres bien passé dans l'ensemble. Très peu de monde dans l'hôtel au moment de notre sejour.
Espace piscine au top, dommage le hammam est fermé ...
Petit dejeuner servi un peu tard pour les voyages d'affaires, et prix du pdj et de la chambre un peu elevé à mon gout.
Dans lensemble c'était top.
Magnifique hôtel qui manque d’entretien (moquettes tachées,murs salis,électricité ne fonctionne pas partout,côté lit en simili cuir qui s’épluche,piscine sale pas de bains de soleil
Nous venons dans cet hôtel depuis 5 ans et constatons un manque réel d’entretien et du laisser aller et mais cela n’est pas nouveau un réel manque d’empathie du personnel
Vraiment dommage car très bel enveloppe immobilière

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.
Piscina interior tinha a temperatura de água desconfortável. Deveria de estar bastante mais quente!
Pequeno almoço para um Hotel 4 Estrelas bastante pobre e com pouca variedade.
property needed maintenance, our light switch didn't work and though we told them at 4 pm they still hadn't come by 9:30PM. said they would try to come after dinner service was over maybe after 10 PM. the bathroom handle was broken, one of the toilet flushers didn't work and safe didn't work. No water supplied for drinking in the room. I asked for a blanket but they didn't have any.
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.

Restrictive breakfast options for vegans
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.
