Safety: 5/5 | View and Beach: 5/5 | Room: 4/5 | Aesthetic Appeal: 3/5 | Food: 1.5/5
At first sight, the hotel is breathtaking, but as you focus on details, the lustre fades. Almost every aspect of this resort has been curated for social media, but when you look closely, true luxury is missing—think dollar-store fake flowers around the swings and plastic fruit displays in the spa.
That said, the physical space is incredible and feels completely safe. We had a three-bedroom unit with private entries, multiple plunge pools, and second-to-none views of the water. The private beach is stunning. With only about 35 units on a massive property, it never feels crowded, and you don't have to wake up early to fight for a beach cabana. The staff is also excellent and very accommodating.
The major drawback is the food. The resort is isolated about 45 minutes from town, and getting to town is a 70-80 euro cost each way. This essentially makes you a captive audience. The food choice and quality for lunch and dinner are very poor, yet the prices are egregious. The one saving grace is that breakfast is served until 11 am and was definitely the highest quality meal they offered.
Right now, it feels like a beautiful photo op with a captive dining trap. If they improved the culinary experience and paid attention to authentic details, this place would be a 5/5.
