We had a fab stay here! Arranged them to pick us up at the airport which was seamless. We arrived at the hotel quite late, around 23:30 and they were still welcoming and even upgraded our room. The pool area is lovely, just limited sun loungers. Breakfast was also great with something for everyone!

Loved our quick stay - the property is beautiful with a great view of the city. Quite outside the core so it is more difficult to find anywhere within walking distance for dinner etc.

This place is fantastic. Alcides, Andrew and Fernando are the wonderful angels who take care of the guests and they work so hard to ensure everyone has a great stay. We felt like we were home.
