Reviews and Ratings
Staying at the hotel felt like discovering a charming village with each room having its own unique charm. The bathroom was fit for a queen, and the pastel colors added to the simple yet elegant style of the island. The amenities, including a powerful Wi-Fi connection, made the stay very comfortable. However, the service had slight hiccups, possibly due to a busy season, with delayed front desk attendance and parcel delivery mishaps. The location was perfect as a base to explore Salina, with beautiful surroundings and close proximity to interesting venues. The dining experience had its ups and downs, with basic options and some delays in service. Overall, the facilities were adequate for a pleasant stay.
The hotel offers charming rooms with nice pastel colors and great bath tubs and showers, creating a village-like feel. The staff is mixed but tries hard to be helpful, and the service has its ups and downs. The location is surrounded by a wonderful garden in a cozy environment, ideal for relaxing. The dining experience varies, ranging from wonderful to overpriced. Overall, it's a mix of positives and negatives to consider.
The spa rooms have an ethnic chic design blending Bali and luxury Africa vibes, but they were a bit too dark for my liking. It would have been nice if hair conditioner was included. The hotel offers good value for the price but could improve on room amenities.
