I had a mixed experience at the hotel. While the rooms were clean and lovely, the dining options left much to be desired with poor service and overcooked meals. The staff was not very attentive, and I felt a bit neglected during my stay. Overall, it had its highlights, but the restaurant's quality significantly marred the experience.

I had a lovely week at the hotel, enjoying the beautiful views from our two-bedroom villa overlooking the golf course. The spa and gym facilities were excellent, but the dining experience and service at the bar left much to be desired. While I appreciated the wonderful spa and gym, the overall upgrade of the villa and the bar staff's attitude should be improved to meet expectations.

I had a lovely stay at Pezula with beautiful views and a spacious accommodation. However, the service left much to be desired. While the location is picturesque, it is quite a distance from town and the beach. Overall, there’s potential for improvement especially in service and amenities.

Rooms

The rooms were big and spacious but quite outdated and in need of a thorough clean. I noticed some cobwebs, which detracted from the overall comfort.

The food at the hotel restaurant was fabulous, but I wish the menu was more up-to-date and the seating better managed; it seemed crowded at dinner times.

The facilities are nice, especially the hot tub with a great view, but more privacy would enhance the experience. The overall maintenance needs attention.

The hotel has a great location with beautiful views, but it's clear that it needs a lot of updates and improvements. While the rooms are spacious, they felt dated and not entirely clean. The breakfast was good, and the outside pool offered fantastic vistas. However, the service was lacking, with some staff being rude and inattentive. Overall, it felt more like a 3-star experience rather than a 5-star hotel.

Rooms

The suites are large but dated and had a musty smell. The curtains were hanging off the rail, and the cleanliness was not up to standard.

I had a mixed experience at the hotel. The rooms were stunning and offered a cozy fireplace, perfect for winter, but there were issues with cleanliness. The service was hit or miss, with some interactions being quite welcoming while others felt less personal. The dining experience was not up to the mark, with limited options and disappointing quality. Overall, the location is beautiful, but there are several areas for improvement.
