Caring staff, brand-new and high standard room with ice, lovely comfy beds plus fresh towels. Remote location especially in the A la carte restaurant. Also - right by has nothing to do with 5 Stars and the restaurants and bars.

The rooms were contemporary and huge, they come with lovely view and a bottle of champagne laid out complimentary plus a nice terrace. The venue was in a secluded location really close to Sao Rafael beach which was beautiful and secluded as well as especially the dining areas. I ate in the à la carte restaurant nearby.

Truly enjoyed my special stay for a relaxing vacation by the sea. The room was tastefully decorated, had a marvellous view over the gardens towards the sea. The beds where best, the food was good. It was in a remote setting in an isolated bay.
Didn't like the area, it was uninviting.
