3-4 Star Review We truly enjoyed our stay. Positives: Excellent culinary experience with an outstanding breakfast included, and very good (though pricey) lunch and dinner options. Perfect beachfront location with direct access to the sand. Friendly and attentive staff, plus a welcoming owner who adds a personal touch. Negatives: The price. At €1,100–1,200 per night, one would expect an extraordinary, ultra-luxury experience. Unfortunately, the level provided does not fully match the rate. Comparable properties (even in the Maldives with overwater villas and premium all-inclusive) offer more for the same price. In the end, the extremely high price is not fully justified. Compared with many other hotels in some of the world’s most beautiful locations, we would consider €600–800 to be the absolute upper limit, but certainly not around €1,200 per night.
