    Spa facilities needed to be booked in advance and didn’t have very long opening hours so unfortunately we weren’t able to use it during our 2 night stay. We were told about booking a spa slot at check in so it was down to us not booking far enough in advance.

    Lovely hotel, great complementary event on arrival day - we took part in a great wine tasting. Lovely personal touches.

    Not much, it could only improve by a daytime bar near the pool so one could have a morning coffee sitting on the sunbeds..I think they will offer this in high season. Restaurant menu would be limited for a vegetarian.

    A wonderful quiet retreat set in beautiful countryside, hectares of amazing wild flowers and the smell of eucalyptus. The hotel facilities were so good, the gym,pool,sauna, rooms and restaurant were perfect.

    We stayed on the 1st floor room of the cubicle we were in and could hear neighbours beneath us speak meaning the isolation is not great, but nothing really disturbing. We would advice to have some kind of blinding for the window in the bathroom that is not privacy proof when walking out of the shower.

    Very spacious setup of hotel and its facilities. Big pool are and bar, setting in nature and the views and tranquility. Staff were super helpful, friendly and authentic in their way of sevicing. Very nice rooms with spacious bathroom and bacony. Extensive breakfast with multitude of nice options.

    Dinner entrees vary in preparation and consistency. February 23 duck was awesome, pork was served cold then over done. This time duck was served cold then over cooked on second try. Frustrating.

    Relaxing and invigorating environment.

    Incredible location, and fantastic staff that made us feel welcome. We loved the way the hotel has been set up, with careful consideration to the environment and also ensuring that one gets to disconnect.

    On the first day the spa was closed - because we were the only guest in the entire hotel. So I am pretty sure they could not be bothered to keep it open for 2 people only. Very disappointing, when you only have 3 days. Also no possibility to borrow a bike for couple of hours. Being alone in the entire hotel we still had an option to either rent it for a half a day or a full day only. I understand this policy in summer but in February when you are alone there, hmmm. Spa is small and has 4 beds only but during my last day 9 people were in there, so was chaotic. Screaming kid in the spa - adult only would be appropriate. Steam room was closed the shoe time. Breakfast is dominated by gluten.

    Very natural design, high quality furniture and natural materials everywhere. Very enjoying for the esthetic eye. Great location middle in the nature, nice hiking roots to the ocean. The arrival is not dramatic at all if you take the right root. Spacious and good equipped gym, big parking lots. Great restaurants in the are of 15-20m drive. Spa area is also pretty and is heaven as long as you are alone there. Great cappuccino at breakfast. Very good wifi everywhere. Very warm reception with champagne.

    A meticulously designed small luxury hotel, nestled in a splendid retreat setting. Upon arrival, we were warmly welcomed by Kim at reception, and Joao ensured our drinks experience was exceptional. The hotel, curated with design-led furniture and artworks, impressed us. We were pleasantly surprised with a welcome wine and delightful chocolates each evening. The intimate boutique spa added to the overall allure. Our experience was truly enjoyable, and we look forward to returning. Gratitude to the entire hotel team for their attentive care. P.s breakfast is incredible!

    Indoor pool was not heated, so water was quite cold

    A stunning place, full merging with nature. We spent an incredible weekend! Throughout our stay we felt care of the staff. Not only a crib was prepared for our baby, but also bathroom essentials. It was convenient to move everywhere with a stroller. Spacious and comfortable room. Very stylish interior of the entire hotel. There are places to walk around in the surrounding area. Delicious food in the restaurant.
