"All in all, a good place to stay - we felt comfortable and enjoyed some nice days (also because we have the attitude that not everything always has to be perfect). The breakfast buffet, the pool area, the cleanliness of the rooms and the quality of the food served are excellent. Nevertheless, the hotel wants to be a high-class hotel and charges accordingly, so you should expect a little more. The following main points of criticism: 1. staff in the restaurants are poorly trained in relation to...

8.8 out of 10, Excellent, (168 reviews)
"Overall, the hotel is ok. The rooms were clean. The food was average. The coffee was bad. The front desk staff were good. The cabanas were good. The pool is good, but closes early. The hotel has no beach. All the activity, including beach, restaurants and shops are in the centre of Santa Maria, about a 20 minute walk. But biggest problem for me was that for every purchase at the restaurant or bar I have to pay each time, with cash or credit card. I would be happy to prepay or pay for the charges...

"Should not be 5 star. The food was fine, pretty much same standard AI as you normally get. The pool is huge and very lovely if you are quick enough in the morning to get a sunbed. The rooms need updating, comfy bed but old, cheap furniture not 5 star quality. We went into town 5 nights out of our 7, it takes about 15 mins to walk and we did it during the day and after dark no problem at all. Taxi option is also very easy. So much better than staying in the hotel, I wish I had gone B&B. The...
