Reviews and Ratings
This hotel is a hidden gem for those seeking a peaceful escape in nature, close to a stunning beach. The rooms are beautifully decorated with chic details, offering comfort and character. The service is friendly and accommodating, making you feel at home. Dining is a delightful experience with a range of local delicacies to enjoy. The facilities provide all you need for a relaxing stay, though there might be room for improvement in some areas.
The hotel is tucked away in a countryside setting, offering a peaceful and calming atmosphere ideal for relaxation. The rooms feature interesting carpets and accent pieces, creating a somewhat hip decor and fixtures, including a luxurious 5 x 10 foot walk-in rain shower. However, service could be more consistent, improving towards the end of the stay. The location is a hidden gem, with the nicest beach in the area just a short walk away, while the dining experience offers a good range of choices with some room for improvement.
The hotel offers a fantastic stay with lovely room designs and attentive service. However, access to the bedroom involves climbing long stairs. The location is peaceful, close to woodland walks and within reach of great restaurants. The dining experience is exceptional, especially on the beautiful outdoor terrace. A top-notch choice for a relaxing getaway.
