Reviews and Ratings
Staying at this hotel was an amazing experience. The rooms were spacious and modern, the staff was incredibly friendly and attentive. The location, although on a hillside, offered stunning views over the Santa Teresa beach. The dining experience was top-notch, especially the delicious cheese rolls. However, the facilities could use some improvement, especially in terms of amenities.
I felt like I hit the jackpot with this hotel! Nestled in the hills over the Santa Teresa beach, the location was just breathtaking. The rooms were cozy and clean, and the service was top-notch. However, the dining options were a bit limited. Despite that, the facilities were fantastic, making my stay truly enjoyable.
