10/10 Excellent

"This is, without a doubt, one of the best resorts I’ve ever stayed at. The location is incredible, with breathtaking views of the Mediterranean Sea on one side and the mountains on the other. The resort has everything you could want: multiple outdoor pools where you can relax or swim laps, tennis courts, garden/oasis with access to their own beach, which is exceptionally clean. The rooms are very spacious, the beds are comfortable, and the service is excellent. There are several restaurants with a variety of dining options, and breakfast is absolutely delicious. The staff is incredibly helpful and welcoming throughout the entire resort. One thing I especially appreciated as a long-term traveler was the quick laundry service—it makes a big difference when you’ve been on the road for a while. There are also some great restaurants nearby. One I highly recommend is Marendero Christina right on the beach. The facilities, location, service, food, and incredibly welcoming staff make it truly special"

"We had an amazing sea view room on the 8th floor. The room was a good size however we were disappointed with there were no tea or coffee making facilities. The bathroom was great although the shower was difficult to point in the right direction. Floors had not been cleaned properly. We requested a late check out room however this was declined. The pool loses the sun by mid afternoon."
