6.4/10 (30 reviews)
The property was in a beautiful location on top of a mountain served well by local buses. The room we had was large but open plan with shower and toilet. The shower was amazing hot and powerful. Electrics in the room were dodgy .And being out of season the pool and hottub were not available which would have been nice to know before booking. The fireplace was not useable. We were given a heater that worked well. Overall we had a lovely stay it was what we needed a break from normal life , peaceful .

Me Rodgrigues was so helping in arranging our transportation from the airport.
The location was great. Right on the bus line. Breakfast was great and staff was very friendly. Pool was lovely. We would definitely book again with this hotel.
