We had a fantastic stay at the hotel, enjoying the intimate atmosphere and wonderful views. The rooms were spacious and clean, though somewhat dated. The service was pleasant, but there were moments where we felt the staff could have been more attentive. The dining options were mostly delicious, and the beach access was lovely, though a bit tricky at times. Overall, the hotel provided great value for a relaxing getaway.

We chose this hotel to celebrate our anniversary, and while there were some nice touches like the champagne breakfasts and a warm welcome, it fell short of our expectations in various areas. The room was comfortable but outdated, and the service lacked attention, making us feel less valued than returning guests. Although the beach was beautiful, the sunbed situation was frustrating. Overall, it was a decent getaway but not the luxurious experience we had hoped for.

Rooms

The garden room we were given was functional but quite dated, especially the bathroom which needed modernization. It had a nice plunge pool and a decent balcony but didn't meet the five-star standard we anticipated.

The location was quite nice, with a lovely beach area and comfortable sunbeds, but securing one was challenging as they were often reserved early by other guests.
Dining

The breakfast was enjoyable with champagne and freshly cooked eggs, but we found the options limited over our stay. The lunch offerings were average, and we often explored other local dining options.
Facilities

The facilities were decent but lacked some basic amenities like a dedicated bar or a proper dining room. We also noticed the gym and library areas were underutilized.

I had a pretty mixed experience at this hotel. While the friendly staff really stood out and made our stay enjoyable, the initial room we were given was overwhelming with dirt and insects, which really put a damper on our first impressions. The beach view was beautiful, which helped redeem the overall experience, but the dining options were somewhat lacking for vegetarians like myself. Overall, it was decent for exploring the area but not ideal for a relaxing all-inclusive stay.

The House is a true gem with stunning views, exceptional service, and a warm atmosphere that feels like a home away from home. The staff genuinely care and make every effort to create a memorable experience. However, the dining experience could be improved, particularly at breakfast, and the presence of flies on the food was quite off-putting. Overall, it's a beautiful place for a relaxing getaway, but there are some areas that need attention.
