L'hôtel est vraiment très sympa, atypique mais très sympa. Les miroirs au plafond, et autour du lit, le lit rond et matelassé, les murs insonorisés, la piscine/spa souterraine privatisable en soirée, bref il n'est pas fait pour des familles avec des enfants. Le personnel et à l'écoute et très professionnel, le personnel de ménage et aux petits soins, le resto et le pub sont franchement bien et les plats sont de qualité. La piscine sur le toit donne une vue magnifique sur la baie de San Pawl, et il y a suffisamment de transats pour tt le monde. Le seul petit point négatif et le problème de stationnement autour de l'hôtel si vous avez une voiture de location. Je recommande vivement.

Damare Resort and Spa is a lovely hotel providing excellent customer service. I had a wonderful experience there. The breakfast was delicious, and the front desk representatives, particularly Christian and Mickey, were exceptionally kind. I would certainly stay there again in the future. Oh, and I must also mention the stunning indoor pool; it was breathtaking.

This hotel is lovely with luxury facilities however the area doesn’t have many things to do but a 30 min Uber can take you to any city - my only recommendation for this hotel is to add 2/3 table tennis tables for people to play

El servicio de habitaciones arruinó nuestra estancia el día de check out. A las 11:05 nos echo de la habitación y eso que estaba el cartel de no molestar y ya estábamos por salir. El chico de la piscina y la recepción, en cambio, fueron geniales.

This hotel is absolutely fab so modern and staff so friendly and very helpful and hotel so clean however the location around the hotel was so quiet and no shops bars restaurants to go too apart from1 lovely Indian restaurant next dr but other than that you would need to get a bus or taxis to anywere, just a bit too remote & outa the way for us we did go walking to see what was around but we didn’t find anything within walking distance I’m afraid

Fabulous Hotel, great food and lovely staff

We really enjoyed our stay here for lots of reasons. Right on St Paul’s Bay, we booked a sea view room which had a glass balcony so you could see the water from the room too. The styling of the hotel is quirky and eclectic, with its dark interiors and mood lighting. The room and bathroom is a great size with lots of storage, and a big circular bed with deep buttoning. The restaurant was excellent- really great quality food. The bar has a pool table, sports screens and a nice atmosphere. Both have great views as you are right on the water. The staff were very warm and welcoming.
