The location is beautiful. The property has lovely rooms. For the cost, attention to detail is not there. If you’re accustomed to paying these prices - be prepared for a lack of attention to detail. Breakfast is OK - staff use iPads to take your order but are not competent to use them - no eye contact and be prepared to wait a long time even when the restaurant is not busy. When making a booking at the spa - when busy - no staff to attend to bookings. Had an evening meal in the restaurant - a very pretentious menu where staff aren’t accustomed to dealing with specific vegan/vegetarian requests. This hotel relies on the views and location to be able to charge the prices they do. Lots of potential but not there yet. Try Airbnb for other local delights and wait for this place to get its act together.
