Staying at this hotel had its ups and downs. The location is absolutely stunning, nestled on what was once a volcano with beautiful landscapes all around. The service was remarkable, with attentive staff making me feel special. However, the room I stayed in was on the smaller side and could have used some renovations. Dining options were varied and quite delightful, particularly enjoying the fresh seafood. Despite these little issues, I'd say it's a treasure worth visiting again.

I had a real mixed bag during my stay at the hotel. On the plus side, the stunning sea views and the beautiful grounds really made the experience feel special. However, I faced some challenges with the room location being too remote and the dining service at the restaurant was rather slow, which took away from the overall enjoyment. The food was decent, but not exceptional, especially given the hotel's higher price point.
