This hotel has some good features, and some very bad ones.
The good stuff:
Right on a cliff with a fantastic view on the sea and on "Cap Diament" (A small Island).
Nice pool.
Helpful and kind staff, except for maybe one employee.
The rooms are decent, especially if you take into account the notion of "ratio quality - price" of this otherwise expensive island.
Now, the bad stuff:
The food served at both restaurant is horrible. I mean really really horrible. Even simple meals such as roasted chiken or cheesburgers were messed up to the point that, one night, they got both I and my wife sick.
And this problem was made worst by the fact that the taxis are unwilling to come to pick you up at the hotel unless you offer them "a long ride". In other words, we could not espace the resort by taking a taxi and eating at the city nearby; and it was otherwise a 25 minutes walk with no real sidewalks.
So, would I recommand this hotel? Certainly not to those who do not have a rental car that would allow them to espace the two worst restaurants I have encoutered in my entire life as a savvy traveller.
