First-class accommodations
The word "luxury" is well-deserved at this location. The rooms blend the best of modern convenience with an historic ambiance to present rooms worthy of magazine spreads. Nothing is too hard or too much trouble for the staff, who seek to make the stay a perfect one.

Beautiful throughout
The grounds here are just gorgeous. The garden area offers relaxation from every angle and even the pool is a stunning design. The common areas of the hotel have period antiques and peaks of garden and sea views await at many windows.
positive:
Unique and pleasurable amenities
This setting is unique and the amenities live up to that label, starting with the salt-water pool. There is a quiet reading room, fully stocked, and a self-catering minibar, also fully-stocked. If you want adventure, check out the hotel's fully-stocked stable.

You'll need a car
If you want to explore, you'll need a car or a strong constitution. The nearest town is a ten-minute drive. The beach is about a 40-minute walk. It isn't a pleasure stroll, but an expedition over rocky terrain and steep cliffs.
negative:
More for looks?
The pool is shallow and can get quite cold. It isn't heated and the temperature depends on the weather. The hotel isn't open all year, but even those warmer months can have chilly breezes.
negative:
Quite expensive
The hotel's restaurant, while delicious, is also quite expensive. It costs much more than the price of restaurants in the nearby town. Also, there is no food offered at lunchtime, so eat a hearty breakfast.
