Great location overlooking the sea in a quieter part of the Island yet only a 30 min drive from the airport. Hotel was really nice and comfortable with spacious rooms. Always clean and tidy and the staff were very friendly and helpful with any questions I had. The onsite restaurant was great too as I preferred to dine here of an evening on the terrace. The dinner menu was good and had a nice selection. Again, the service was good and staff super friendly and attentive. There was dedicated parking available.

There really wasn’t much that I didn’t like about the property as I had such a good stay. However, there were a few minor points worth mentioning: 1. My room was 1901 at ground level. Very nice room but it sounded like there were elephants playing upstairs. Not ideal when trying to sleep. 2. Dinner isn’t available Sunday and Monday. Not the end of the world as you can go out for dinner no problem. Just something to be aware of. Snack / lunch time small options are available but not what you want for an evening meal. 3. Whilst there was dedicated parking, it’s very limited. I didn’t have problems getting a space each day when I returned to the hotel, but I can see how it might be an issue during peak times.

Charming design with beautiful terrace for breakfast and heated pool. Room was beautiful and we were greeted warmly by reception, and enjoyed the special treats given as we were on honeymoon. Parking onsite was sufficient for our stay and we never had trouble.

However, we were given (what seems like) the only room ground floor which was right beside the stairs and right beside the breakfast area so early morning we were woken up by thumping down the stairs, and noise/foot traffic all around the room from guests and staff. The checkout reception was also a different lady, whose attitude was not as kind as the lady who welcomed us.

So I wasn't sure if this place was going to be too fancy. It is an absolutely beautiful place with very down to earth staff. Small number of rooms, so lots of space on the grounds for everyone to have space to enjoy. Private parking lot. Small restaurant that requires reservations that can be made the same day. Really enjoyed the food and very friendly staff.

They really wanted us to partake in breakfast 😆. We advised them we did not plan on eating breakfast since we would be hiking so early. They offered to pack up food, and we declined. We still woke up to food outside our room. Probably the least negative didn't like comment possible.

It was a beautiful building from 1930 well renovated. It has a great outdoor space quite rustic and has a swimmingpool. Next to the hotel in the garden they had a small restaurant with good regional dishes. They also have good wines with it. Nicely prepaired and cosy. Nice staff. Here you will also have your breakfast inside or outside. Beautiful view. Parking places at the hotel and next to the hotel. Thanks for the good experience!

The meals were so phenomenal we ate all our dinners there too. Loved the patio overlooking the sea where we could relax during the day with a drink or have our dinner/breakfast al fresco. The staff were so friendly and accommodating. I love that it is a small boutique hotel. We had a room with a large veranda, which was great for listening to the waves and relax. It was great that we had access to local juices, beers in the fridge in our room

Nothing!

We arrived late at night, due to the plane's late arrival. Having notified the staff, they gave us a detailed explanation how to enter the premises after hours. Allthough we did not expect it, a late evening snack had been provided in our room, which was quite welcome. Next day we got treated on an excellent combination of buffet style breakfast and table service in a wonderful setting. Do not go to the trouble of looking to find somewhere to eat the first days of your stay as the hotel's chef is really set up to provide you with delicious meals and treats.

let me think ........ i cannot find anything. The location and staff exceeded all our expectations. The staff in particular succeeded in giving us that feeling of "being at home, away from home.

Beautiful place, very clean, everyone is very welcoming and helpful. Nice location, you can walk by foot to some restaurants and the banana museum Breakfast was good

Just a minor thing: Breakfast was very good. Ham and butter was put on the table while the rest was at the buffet - we had to ask several times to get some more. It would be nice if this could also be just on the buffet

A stunning house, beautifully restored and decorated. A gorgeous location with views out to sea. Delicious food - breakfast was the right amount and the dinner was high quality. It was nice to see some alternative options on the menu, different to the local restaurants. Restaurant staff were charming. The room was beautiful - classic decor creating a very romantic vibe. The balcony although small was the cherry on the cake!

The only downside is the car park which is pretty tight to get into, but there is an ‘overflow’ one just down the road which is easier.

The hotel itself is spectacular but the staff are what make this place really special. Nicole on reception was so incredibly helpful and the restaurant staff were superb. Excellent food and facilities and will be dreaming of that view for a while. Like luxury hotels used to be in ‘the good old days’.
