4.2/5Very Good! (258 reviews)
Hotel was overall slightly underwhelming, particularly for a boutique hotel - it was not boutique. Pros: - good size room and large terrace which we loved - swimming pool decent size and easy to get sun loungers - we used the spa (has a massage and facial) and this was lovely Cons: - customer service lacking, when we arrived we were passed between three different people to check in also not shown to our room - we asked for a taxi to the airport for a journey home to be booked, when we arrived to checkout I asked that once our taxi arrive they let us know as we were going to sit round the corner, no one came to get us, instead we went outside and got in a taxi (no idea if it was the taxi the hotel had booked!?!) - information about the local area and things to do lacking in the room - the room had only one coffee cup for a two person room - even when the room was cleaned this was not noticed - waterfall shower head was broken and instead water came out just one side of the head - edging around bath was coming off really badly so we didn’t have a bath as it was not correctly sealed - towel rail I put a towel on and it immediately came out the wall unable to support the weight of a single towel - rooms lacking toiletries instead there’s just a soap dispenser in the shower... not boutique hotel standard - $8 charge for sun loungers on the beach! This was a lot more than other hotels many who had their sun loungers reserves for guests only free of charge

4.5/5Wonderful! (344 reviews)
Fifth visit in 5 years. Despite restrictions necessary through Covid 19 the hotel ran to its usual high standard. Menu choices reduced this year due to covid but overall the staff from the restaurants and indeed all staff from the General Manager to the groundsmen treat guests with the greatest respect and could not be more helpful. Beautiful atmosphere in wonderful garden setting.
