In brief

What works, what to weigh

+

Strengths

3 reasons to book
  • Sea or mountain views from every suite — The property sits on the hills of Santa Teresa, and each suite offers either sea or mountain views, with several reviews singling out the scenery from rooms and common areas.
  • Quiet, green location away from the bustle — Guests repeatedly note the peaceful atmosphere and lush surroundings, while still being a short bus or taxi ride from the main sights and the Santa Teresa district.
  • Rooftop terrace and infinity pool — The rooftop terrace and infinity pool are recurring highlights, offering a place to relax with the view.

Worth weighing

3 to weigh
  • Steep uphill location — The property is up in the hills, and some guests found the incline challenging. Staff can help arrange taxis and transportation.
  • Noisy air conditioning in some rooms — One guest specifically flagged the air conditioning as noisy, so light sleepers may want to check the unit in their suite.
  • Limited food and drink options — While the quality of the food was praised, the on-site selection was described as somewhat limited.

The bottom line
