Reviews and Ratings
I couldn't have asked for a better view from my room overlooking the gardens, tree-covered hills, and the beach. It was truly breathtaking. However, the need for a fresh coat of paint and some brown stains in the bathroom took away from the overall experience. The room felt more like a showroom than a cozy retreat.
I had a wonderful time at the hotel with its stunning view of the gardens, tree-covered hills, and the beach from the huge veranda. The room, elegantly decorated in an old colonial style, was a delight to stay in, despite being more focused on looks than convenience. The lovely veranda overlooking the well-maintained gardens added a special touch to the atmosphere. The experience was truly unforgettable!
The hotel is nestled in a beautiful location right on the beach, near the historical Nelson's Dockyard. The rooms had a damp and musty smell, and some areas showed signs of wear. The service was pleasant and helpful, though there were issues with room fees. The dining experience offered delicious Italian dishes and cocktails. The surroundings were lovely, with attentive attendants by the pool providing cold towels and more.
