I love this hotel it's the second time I've stayed here and it's the bargain of the century. Breakfast simply in a word is fantastic. Views stunning staff flawless. I am the fussiest person on earth and I love this hotel. I think we paid $126 a night after taxes with two breakfasts. Breakfast was worth $50 a person. Don't expect any pork products but other than that this place is flawless. Pool is stunning and heated in the winter. Room is huge. Bathrooms I could live without someone else watching me shower because there is a piece of glass in front for a door that is see-through. I guess if you're with your mate and not your friend it's exciting to watch somebody take a bath or shower. The toilet is separate luckily so nobody has to watch you do that. I can't say enough good things about this hotel. The staff is very helpful and every person that works at the front desk is like a personal concierge. I booked this place for $99 half board in the summer but it's frightfully hot I couldn't leave I stayed an extra 4 days I stayed at this hotel for 8 days about a year and a half ago as well. This hotel is absolutely perfect!
