Chiesa Holidays from £309

Good central location. No

Not at all as advertised. It shows up as a 4 star hotel. Instead imagine an old short-term rental studio with a confusing check-in and zero assistance. No front desk, no person to help. We got in and there were 4 packets with 4 different room keys sitting on a desk. Which room was ours? No clue. There were no names on the packets. I tried calling the number listed multiple times but no answer. So we picked a random room. Our family who arrived several hours before us had the same experience. Did we get rooms we paid for? Who knows. The room is really old. Door to the hallway doesn't close all the way with a single questionable lock. Doors to the windows and bathroom also don't close all the way. Only shampoo in the shower (no soap), two single towels. The daytime high was only 70 but without AC the room was really warm and too warm for us to sleep well. Had I booked a short-term rental half the price I would have been OK with all of this. But I booked what I thought was a 4 start hotel. Really disappointed and wishing I had spent half the amount I paid.

Having read some of the earlier poor reviews, I was a little nervous. But I needn’t have been because this is a lovely clean and well run hotel in a great position. What surprised me most was the quality of the restaurant and especially towards the end of the week when lobster appeared on the menu. The bed in our room was large and comfortable with a good shower and air con. The pool is very large, clean and with plenty of singers with some underneath the cool shade of the pines. A definite ‘recommended’ from us!

Great hotel. Great staff. Great location. Every bit of our stay there was top notch. We will definitely book there again!
