The hotel and the accommodations were very nice and everything was maintained well, however, the staff was extremely disappointing. They were not helpful at all and made us feel unwelcome.

We liked the location, views, and facilities. The staff could have been a bit more informative upon our arrival about the hotel services, like laundry and housekeeping. We had to figure out some important information ourselves and take the initiative to ask. Also, the restaurant menu was slightly pricy, and our dinner not as delicious. Still, the (free) breakfast buffet had an appreciable variety of good food which we really enjoyed. Also, our room was rather big and comfortable.

Claimed to have sent VIP wine to the room and when confronted the staff wanted to double check with maid and we never heard the result. No luggage rack, heating iron, nor tissue paper. Really crowded breakfast.

Die Aussicht aufs Meer war traumhaft. Der großteil des Personals war sehr freundlich und hilfsbereit. Das Zimmer war sauber, die Dusche bräuchte mal wieder etwas Aufmerksamkeit. Am Frühstücksbuffet gab es eine große und Wechselende Auswahl. Leider war die Qualität des Essens teilweise nicht so gut.

Angenehmes Hotel es war sauber. Das Zimmer erwies sich überraschenderweise als eine Suite, wow!. Panorama Fenster, großer Balkon mit herrlichem Blick aufs Meer. Das Personal ist sehr hilfsbereit und zuvorkommend. Bei Problemen wird sofort geholfen. Die Küche ist hervorragend. Dieses Hotel kann auf jeden Fall empfohlen werden. Vielen Dank an das Personal.

Excellent hotel!

A wonderful stay, big rooms with excellent view, friendly and helpful staff. Rented the hotel's electric car, very comfortable to drive and not that expensive considering you don't have to pay for petrol (or even charging). Covid safety ensured very well by the staff, a big plus for that!

I liked location. I didn't like that there was no tea and coffee added every day in the room when run out. You have to go to the restaurant or bar just to have cup of tea.

More like 4 star - highly recommend

This is a lovely hotel to relax in. My room was spacious, balcony was massive and private (I think all the rooms have balconies but some balconies are smaller and less private, my room no. was 816). Very clean and nicely decorated. It's so close to the beach that you can hear the waves from the room which is heaven and if that's not your thing the doors are soundproof. Best view I've had in a hotel (just the ocean). It's about 15 mins to the centro by bus, the hotel has a free shuttle service and the bus stop is just outside with a regular service. There is a black sand beach in front of the hotel, really pretty. The food was good, varied. Restaurant near it is worth a visit. If you are covid cautious, this place is for you. They take it very seriously (e.g. disinfected my suitcase on arrival, disinfected salt shakers when setting the table etc.) and it sets a good tone in the hotel e.g. ppl don't get in the same lift. They take your temp at check in and having masks, gloves and gel is mandatory (they made me buy gloves as I didn't have any). I felt very covid safe here. The only negative was that the service wasn't great. Only met 1-2 nice people on the front desk and otherwise, I found the staff to be a bit abrupt, questions about activities were met with responses about QR codes. Professional but not overly hospitable. There are steep gradients to the hotel and pool/beach! Overall my stay was super relaxing and I would certainly stay again.
