Perfection

Divine from the first moment to the last. We stayed in a club luxury corner & it was worth every penny. From check in drinks on arrival, the beautiful pool + bar, canapé service & breakfast we were spoilt. The service was perfect, not stuffy but nothing was too munch trouble. Not to mention all the little extras that made the difference. Loved this hotel.
