Beautiful property. Fantastic breakfast. Lovely pool. However, pool food was not great. Chicken in Caesar salad was so tough it was like eating rubber, such a shame as everything else was perfect.

This is a gorgeous hotel and felt like old world charm. Loved having drinks at the bar in the evening while a pianist entertained. The roof top pool we got access to, was the perfect way to unwind. We enjoyed a couple of meals on property and had zero complaints. One of our favourite stays during our trip!
