Had an amazing stay in one of their beautiful private villa. The plunge pool was perfect for relaxing and added a real sense of luxury to the experience. The villa was spotless, well-maintained, and very comfortable throughout the stay. The staff were amazing, attentive, friendly, and willing to help with anything needed. The surroundings were stunning, with peaceful scenery that made it feel like a true escape, even if it was only for one night :)

The hotel was very inviting and clean… were greeted with a cold drink and a cold wet towel for the heat… staff is incredibly nice and hospitable.. the room was very spacious and clean.. my favorite was the big roomy shower and huge towels!! The food, not so much. They need a big improvement on the food, the Chicken, rice and fruit was good for their morning brunch… but not even the coffee was good, please improve for a more quality stay.. but thank you… it was great to stay there..

I absolutely loved this place!! I can’t say enough about it. The staff was so sweet, kind and helpful. They arranged transport for us more than once, they helped in every way possible when we needed anything. The rooms were impeccably clean. Honestly, this was one of the best places I have ever stayed in and I’ve been all over the world literally. Highly recommend this place and the staff here. When we travel, we never want to stay in a place more than once. We’re definitely going back here!! Also, they cleaned the private pool in our villa every day as well. Just top tier service all around.

Hotel great ! Food great ! Pool amazing!

Personal pool, a large general pool, great cooking (rare) and the personnel was fantastic. The beds were very comfortable and the bathrooms huge. The only downside were the roaches (3/4) walking around on the buffet during breakfast. The breakfast is well protected, but it is still a little unsettling.
