Huge complex (too big for us personally), directly on the sea, which can be reached via a staircase and a path. Beautiful garden. Excellent spa with the best therapists and treatments. Yoga program good, the teacher quite self-focused, with a tendency to expand theory too much, practice then good. There were problems with the so-called full board: this is namely limited (eg 35 euros dinner), something that we have not read so even at the tour operator and refers to certain restaurants, so the final bill of several hundred euros had to be corrected accordingly. It is particularly worth mentioning that the hotel is involved in a program for the protection of cats and provides them with an animal welfare organization on site. Accordingly, the cats look well cared for.

Comment from SpaDreams

Thank you very much for your kind review. We are sorry that there were misunderstandings regarding the catering in the hotel. However, we are glad that an agreement could be reached. We will contact the hotel to avoid this in the future.
