We were greater with Sophia that handled our visit perfectly, we booked a couple massage. With Alma and Mui, and it was absolutely stunning. I need more of an aggressive massage and mui handled it with great care. It was one of the best massages I have ever gotten.

We stayed at the hotel in August for four nights as a family of four ( two adults and two children) The hotel is in an excellent location with beautiful views. Unfortunately, beyond that, we found very few real advantages. The hotel does not have a private beach, nor is there a convenient beach nearby. The outdoor pool was extremely cold, which made it difficult to enjoy. The small private pool attached to our room was more like a shallow plunge pool — small, cool, and not particularly useful or enjoyable. The spa was one of the few highlights of our stay. It has both a hot and a cold sauna, which we enjoyed. The indoor spa pool felt a little claustrophobic, but overall it was fine. One of the biggest issues for us was the room layout. There is very little privacy, as the shower and toilet are essentially part of the open-plan room, without a proper solid door separating them from the sleeping area. This design might work well for a couple, but it is definitely not ideal for a family with children. We stayed on a breakfast-only basis. Breakfast was quite basic and nothing memorable, and overall we found the food throughout the hotel to be below what we would expect from a hotel of this level. Overall, the location and views are excellent and the spa is pleasant, but unfortunately the hotel itself did not live up to our expectations, particularly for a family stay.
