"I stayed at this hotel with a friend and we had an absolutely fantastic stay from start to finish.
The food was amazing, and as a vegetarian I was really impressed with the variety of options available. A special mention goes to Manuel, the head waiter, who kindly offered to show me all of the vegetarian and vegan options each day. It was such a thoughtful touch and made dining much easier. I also loved that there was something different on offer every evening, so we never got bored of the food during our stay.
The waiting staff were all incredibly friendly, attentive, and knowledgeable. They were always happy to recommend drinks and, by the end of our stay, felt very familiar with us, which created such a welcoming atmosphere.
Check-in was quick and easy. Sara is a real credit to the hotel and was extremely helpful from the moment we arrived. She took the time to explain everything the hotel had to offer, as well as providing information about the local area, which was greatly appreciated.
Our room was spotless and the air conditioning was an absolute lifesaver. Rooms were scheduled to be cleaned every other day, but we noticed ours was often cleaned daily with fresh towels provided, which was a lovely bonus. The swinging egg chair was a beautiful feature and made it even more enjoyable to sit and take in the stunning views.
Pool towels could be rented for €10 and exchanged whenever needed, which was very convenient.
The hotel’s location was ideal for us as we didn’t want to be right in the middle of the busy town centre. It was around a 15-minute walk into town, which we did on most evenings, but it wasn’t necessary to leave the hotel if you didn’t want to. The restaurant regularly offered live music and entertainment, and the bar remained open until 11pm, creating a lovely atmosphere and giving guests plenty to enjoy without having to venture out.
The hotel is also less than a five-minute walk from Ferrera Beach, which we visited frequently during our stay. We rented two loungers, an umbrella, and a lockbox for €17. The beach is beautiful, but I would recommend getting there around 9:30am if you want to secure a spot, as they get taken very quickly due to the number of nearby hotels.
We also had a very early checkout because of our transfer and flight. The staff kindly offered to take us to the restaurant for a coffee before we left, which was such a thoughtful gesture and a lovely way to end our holiday.
I genuinely could not recommend this hotel more highly.
If I were to suggest one area for improvement, it would be the number of loungers around the pool. There weren’t many available, and despite signs asking guests not to reserve them, many loungers were occupied with towels from early in the morning. This was a little frustrating and I can imagine it being much more of an issue during peak season. We found that if we spent the day at the beach, we could usually come back around 4:30pm and find a lounger by the pool, but any earlier than that was generally difficult due to the limited number available and the amount being reserved. Fortunately, it didn’t affect us too much as we spent most of our time at the beach, but it’s something worth noting for future guests.
The only other minor point is that while breakfast was served from 8am–10am, which suited us perfectly, dinner started quite late at 6:45pm. We often found ourselves very hungry by then, even after having lunch during the day. There were snacks and meals available to order by the pool, which helped, but an earlier dinner service would have been appreciated.
One final thing worth mentioning is accessibility. While this wasn’t an issue for us, guests with mobility difficulties may find parts of the hotel challenging to navigate. Many of the corridors leading to rooms have three or four steps, and there are additional steps around the pool area and restaurant. The walk to both the beach and town centre is also a little hilly and includes steps in places. This wasn’t a problem for us, but it is something future guests may wish to consider when booking.
Overall, this hotel exceeded our expectations. The staff, food, cleanliness, location, and service were all exceptional, and we wouldn’t hesitate to return in the future."
