Wonderful

Great for the price. Really comfortable room and good location. Clean and well appointed. North best restaurant or bar at the hotel, but not bad either and there were loads of great local places within a few minutes walk. I’d recommend.
Really nice hotel in a great location to explore the town. Carpets were a little dated and the “gym” was not great. Better to go for a walk. Otherwise was really enjoyable. Visited Armona island at it was a magical day.
Friendly, helpful and professional staff. Excellent location. Clean and well maintained. Great facilities. Wide choice of breakfast foodstuffs. Decent sized pool and well equipped gym and spa. Coffee maker and kettle in room, with stocks replenished daily.
Lovely hotel that we use each year at the end of the summer. Staff are very friendly.
Breakfast is lovely, lunch is good but dinner is not the best.
We ate out as there is a wide variety of restaurants along the marina.
Perfectly located, by the marina and 20 mins drive from the airport.
Must admit this fantastic hotel is always on our must visit list - this time we went to Noelie the adjoining restaurant and the food was all first rate. Tanu the somellier recommended a stunning Dao when we asked for a white wine recommendation - it was excellent and we even had a fluffy almond desert upon the staff recommendation - suffice to say it comes highly recommended.
Our sea-view room was as requested - spacious, clean and with twin beds. Staff were very helpful throughout and the place was kept spotless. Excellent pool and leisure facilities. Very good buffet breakfast.
Olhao markets are a short walk away with lots of good restaurants nearby. The best ones book up early. The railway and bus stations are a 20 minute walk if you want to explore further. All in all an excellent stay and we would certainly stay in the future.
Nice Hotel overlooking the beautiful Formosa and barrier islands. Very good breakfast, evening meal somewhat lacking in choice but good quality meals. Room spacious, quiet and clean. Olhau is interesting to explore. Nice change to beach and city hotels..
The welcoming and friendly staff giving excellent and efficient service in all areas of the hotel.
Beautiful rooms giving value for money.
Wonderful breakfast experience and availability to provide gluten free options.
The location was perfect, nearby the restaurants and shops. We enjoyed the breakfast each morning with a variety of food. The staff were, friendly, helpful and professional. The swimming pool was a welcomed amenity to cool off and relax.
We liked everything staff food rooms all great nothing too much trouble
Only exception was Spa staff, a little clicky I think always little girls sniggering and whispering when you come and go
Otherwise we will be back
Breakfast is good. Bar staffs are excellent. Front desk staffs are not very professional. Outdoor pool is very good.

Room was spacious and clean but some parts either needed addressing- stains on carpets, cracks in walls of bathroom and to be able to adjust AC according to own preference.
Staff were friendly, kind and welcoming.. no hassle in asking.
Breakfast - plenty of choices to suit all.
Nice location and really good breakfast. Room was very comfortable and well decorated. Location was great - right on the marina and walkable to a really great park and markets, shops & restaurants. Gym hours are limited (didn't open until 8am) and the temperature in it was too warm for me, but otherwise gym was great. Pool area was really nice, too. Hallways look dated but everything else looked great.
