You won’t be disappointed! Incredible place! The hotel staff were amazing, very friendly and on point. They didn’t miss a beat. They helped us arrange a rental car through their property, dinners, and hiking tours. They have a spa on site which is great. We were lucky enough to get sunshine both day we were there but had we been “rained in” it’s a perfect place to lounge and relax. We had the smaller room and this room was NOT small at all!

The service was impeccable. Everyone knew who we were and the villa we were staying at. So polite, gracious and helpful. The facilities were top notch and the spa was wonderful. We sampled the massages and facial treatments. Amazing experience. Dinner options were perfect. We were very impressed. My only complaint was the breakfast got a little repetitive and boring. We will definitely return. ##### James Stayed 3 nights in Apr 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Tobias 25 Sept 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Tolles Hotel, super service, sehr gute Restaurants und herausragender Service. ##### Tobias Stayed 3 nights in Sep 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Anton 11 Apr 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities it’s great ##### Anton Stayed 3 nights in Apr 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### ATSUYA 27 Feb 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities ヴィラに宿泊しました。施設、スタッフの方の接客、料理どれも素晴らしかったです。 急な要望にも応えていただき、最高の体験になりました。 ありがとうございました。 ##### ATSUYA Stayed 2 nights in Feb 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Sakamoto 6 Jan 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities 素晴らしい施設とホスピタリティでした。 また伺います。 ##### Sakamoto Stayed 2 nights in Jan 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Hirobumi 13 Aug 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities 3回目の滞在でした 料金的には厳しいのですが年に1度の優雅な一時を楽しむため頑張ります 帰りに来年の予約を入れて後にしました ##### Hirobumi Stayed 3 nights in Aug 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Tomoko 15 May 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities 美しい海と山に囲まれた最高の景色と、笑顔の素敵なスタッフの皆様の気遣い、美味しい料理、南国ムードたっぷりのお部屋と最高の時間を過ごさせていただきました。 ディナーは一階のアヤナでプリフィックスのコースをいただきましたが、どれも工夫されていて目でも舌でも楽しめました。デザートはビュッフェでどれも選べず!10種類くらい+お茶菓子もたくさん。少しずつ全部いただきました。どれも美味しいし、見た目も綺麗で選ぶのもとても楽しいと思います。 お部屋は広く、たくさんの種類のお茶や珈琲も備えてありその時の気分で好きなものを楽しめます。ライブラリーでお借りした山本二三さんの絵画集を見ながらまったりくつろぎ最高でした! スタッフの皆さんも島のこと、食べ物のこと、ホテルのこと、話題が豊富でお話しするのも楽しいと思います。お土産も持たせてくださったんですが、開けてびっくりする素敵なギフトご入っていました。 ぜひまた滞在したいです。できれば次はもうちょっと長めに! 幸せな時間をありがとうございました。 ##### Tomoko Stayed 1 night in Mar 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Asae 31 Mar 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities 居心地の良いホテルです。働いている皆様のホスピタリティが高く感動しました。お食事、設備もとても満足しました。心からのんびりすることが出来ました。ありがとうございます。 また伺います。 ##### Asae Stayed 3 nights in Mar 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Masao 24 Mar 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities サービスがゆきとどいていました。 ##### Masao Stayed 2 nights in Mar 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Takahiro 17 Mar 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### 最高のホテルです!
