Reviews and Ratings
The hotel is perched atop a cliff at the edge of Caloura overlooking the ocean, offering stunning views and lush surroundings. The rooms, all with ocean views, are soothing with the sound of waves, making any choice a great one. The hotel excels in service, making our stay pleasant and effortless, from the snack bar to car hire. The location, although breathtaking, could use a bit of enhancement, especially the free breakfast. The dining was mostly fresh and adequate, although the buffet dinner fell short in value. Overall, this hotel guarantees a serene and enjoyable stay with a few minor drawbacks to consider.
The hotel offers a comfortable stay with a great ocean view, though the rooms feel budget, and the bathrooms might need some updating. The service was friendly and accommodating, and the location was stunning but best enjoyed with a car. Dining was decent but not exceptional, and the facilities were satisfactory.
What a wonderful stay! The hotel offers stunning views of the ocean from the rooms and the service is top-notch. However, the dining experience was a bit of a letdown as the price for in-hotel dining seemed excessive. On the bright side, the location is central to different parts of the island and is highly recommended for those interested in taking a yoga class.
I had a wonderful stay at this hotel surrounded by the beauty of the ocean views. The rooms were comfortable and had everything I needed for a pleasant stay, but they could use some updating in the bathrooms. The service was excellent, with friendly staff who were always there to help, although some more knowledge on hiking trails would have been appreciated. The location was simply breathtaking, atop a cliff with private paths down to the water, but was a bit far from other amenities. The dining experience was not very good and quite expensive, even though the hand-made pasta was a unique touch.
