Lovely Leisure Facilities

I was thrilled with the lovely setting that included beautiful gardens and a super warm pool. The atmosphere was relaxing, and I loved unwinding in the jacuzzi while listening to the soothing sounds of nature around me. It was the perfect respite after a day of exploration.

Comfy Room Experience

The room was spacious, beautifully decorated, and very clean. I appreciated the attention to detail that made me feel at home. The twin room with two double beds was perfect for my stay, although I wish it had a bit more floor space for luggage. Nonetheless, I really enjoyed my time there.

The hotel has a nice, quiet atmosphere with a lovely view and was clean overall. The location in Santa Elena was great, making it easy to explore nearby attractions.

I had a mixed experience during my stay. The hotel boasts friendly staff and enjoyable dining options, but I encountered issues with the room and ongoing construction. The location is decent, with easy access to nearby shops and restaurants, but that doesn't fully make up for the drawbacks in room quality and noise.

Our room was quite noisy and felt dated, lacking proper heating or cooling options. It didn't match the quality of other rooms that were likely better appointed.
