Reviews and Ratings
I had a mixed experience at the hotel. The rooms were of a high standard, although a bit dark and uncomfortably hot due to the lack of air conditioning or external ventilation. The service was excellent, with friendly and entertaining staff. The location was great, overlooking the bay, but noise from air condition vents and the need for cleanliness were downsides. The dining options were varied but had some room for improvement. Overall, a pleasant stay with a few drawbacks to consider.
Staying at this hotel was a mixed experience. On the one hand, the room overlooked a beautiful water garden and being near the pool was nice. However, the room layout and distance from the lift could be challenging for those with mobility issues. The service was decent but had some minor issues such as noisy trolleys. The location was excellent for exploring the island and being right on the seafront but lacked clarity on specific amenities. The dining options were tasty but could have more variety, and the facilities were good overall.
I had a mixed experience at the hotel. The location was great for us attending an event at Villa Marina and being close to town. The rooms were good, but some aspects were not as expected, like the distance from the lift. The service was excellent overall, despite a few unfriendly encounters. The dining had its ups and downs, with a pricey breakfast that could be improved. The facilities were decent, but some areas looked tired.
The hotel was cozy and peaceful, offering comfortable rooms with refreshing views of the promenade. The service was exceptional, with a warm and helpful staff who went above and beyond. The location was ideal, situated on the promenade with secure parking and lovely sea views. The dining experience was satisfying, although a more varied selection would have been appreciated.
The hotel is in a prime location with beautiful views of the promenade and sea. The rooms are fantastic, clean, and comfortable, although a bit of a walk down the corridor. The service is outstanding, with exceptionally friendly and helpful staff. The dining experience offers delicious options but could be more budget-friendly. The location is excellent for exploring the town and enjoying the nearby attractions, despite the higher price tag.
The hotel had spacious rooms with lovely balconies overlooking the gardens and water features in the center, but they were in desperate need of a makeover and the breakfast was overcooked. The service was a mix of short and rude interactions alongside fantastic and helpful assistance. The location was excellent, close to the port, with a theater next door, but some renovations were still ongoing. The dining experience offered an extensive choice of hot and cold foods, but some items were not up to standard. Overall, a place with potential but needing improvements.
The hotel is situated in a prime location, overlooking the beach and with a playpark nearby. The rooms initially needed attention but after requesting, we were relocated to a very satisfactory room. The property could benefit from a renovation as the current rooms show signs of wear and tear.
