From the moment we booked this hotel and received a welcome email from Susanna, our experience was sublime. Susanna met us with a gracious and warm smile when we checked in; like old friends who are happy to see each other. She arranged for us to have lunches made to take on our boat trip, and they were exceptional. Two loaves of fresh bread, several cold cuts and cheeses, peaches, plums, and a huge bottle of water. Our dinner at the restaurant was also lovely. From the amazing view over the water and the beach, to the stellar service staff who found a way to combine excellent service with warm, jovial interactions. Never too pretentious, but a thoroughly fine dining experience with excellent food. The view from our room over the pool out to the sea was stunning at every hour--but especially at sunrise. Poolside service was also excellent. This boutique hotel was special in every way, and we felt appreciate and pampered at every turn. They even had a bottle of iced champagne for us for our anniversary. This place is a stunner.
