stunning gardens but limited dining options
The gardens offered a breathtaking view, showcasing unique flora that made my strolls truly special. The staff's attention to detail was remarkable. they greeted me by name and went above and beyond to ensure my comfort. The breakfast was delightful, with choices that highlighted local flavors, particularly the homemade jams that made each bite a treat.
The half-board dining choices felt somewhat repetitive, lacking creativity and variety.

The gardens here are a stunning triumph, showcasing unique flora and a picturesque setting that really captures the essence of tranquility. The breakfast is high-quality and locally-inspired, setting a solid foundation for the day ahead.
There are some concerns worth noting. The air conditioning in the rooms can be inconsistent, leading to discomfort, especially during warmer nights. Dinner pricing feels steep, particularly the fixed menu, which at 44 euros, strikes as overpriced when compared to nearby dining options. the limited dining choices in half board could use more creativity. it gives off a sense of capitivity, with few alternatives outside the hotel. the absence of afternoon shuttle runs back from town might frustrate those looking to enjoy later outings. Minor issues like outdated room decor and a slight lack of in-room dining options also detracted slightly from the experience.
