Fiona GomersallYoung couple - Avg. price/night: £63.177.7Scored 7.7GoodRated good· 593 reviewsIt was a good typical breakfast. The pool was lovely and the view spectacular. The staff were friendly. Not their issue that the rooms shown when booking are not the room given on arrival. They are doing their best. This place has huge potential if managed correctly. Money needs to be invested. The Mirador del Valle restaurant is 300 meters from hotel. Same gorgeous view, excellent service and the food was amazing.Kimberley-AnneYoung couple
