The staff was very warm and welcoming. Room was comfortable. Mineral pools were amazing! Impressed that the buffet breakfast included decent hot food as well as the usual range of cereals and fruits. Very relaxing stay.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities
The room was clean, spacious and updated. The staff was friendly and accommodated our late arrival.
The hot tub and pool were clean and relaxing.
The breakfast was a good start to the day with cheese omelette, cereals, bread, yogurt and fruit.
The room was simple, clean and pretty. The staff took the time to walk us to our room in the dark when we arrived, such a small gesture but so helpful. The breakfast in the morning was nice with a free continental breakfast and options to order and pay for an acaii bowl, wine, etc. The jacuzzi and heated pool were 10/10, I enjoyed going between the two different temperatures. We would stay here again!
