“Truly wonderful and are going back in September - cant wait!”

From the moment we arrived we were made to feel so special and I personally felt like a wee Princess! The reception staff were so friendly and helpful and the staff overall were all lovely. The restaurant staff were amazing, so helpful and always smiling. The waiters at night were wonderful, in the restaurants and also the Laguna Bar where we went for pre dinner drinks. The chef was so helpful and made any meal that we wanted. I loved their chocolate souffle and had it 3 nights running!! We have been to many 5 star Hotels throughout the world and we both can honestly say that this, for us is the best . It has its own beach and you are made to feel so special there too with your sunbed all ready with towels and drinks brought to you on request. We went for a swim every morning in the indoor pool before the wonderful breakfast and the girls there were just lovely with everything so clean and ready for us when we arrived at 8am when it opened. If you want to feel truly special and relaxed then go to this wonderful Hotel.

“Living in the past”

I've been a little harsh in my ratings but given the cost of staying in this hotel you do expect the best - and that was not provided. The location is excellent, but the hotel is tired and lifeless. West facing rooms have wonderful views, but the rooms themselves are unexciting, with the bathrooms very old fashioned with showers in the bath still! The leisure facilities fall way below what a hotel of this calibre should provide - a small gym with equipment unrepaired for 3 days - small pools: a spa that is plonk in the middle of all the noise of swimming pool/ gym and kids playing table tennis. The front desk give the impression that you are lucky to be provided entry to their hotel - not what I expect from a supposedly top hotel.
