Perfect location at La Barra. Spacious room size with lots of wardrobes and brand new towels, robes and sheets. Attentive and 24/7 staff. Wonderful food at breakfast, restaurant and room service. Beautiful bar. Great gym area and pool. My only suggestion is that the pool could be heated. Love it and hope to come back soon!

Disliked: Staff & service, amenities
O hotel não está no nível do esperado do grupo Cipriani. É um hotel velho reformado, mas com cheiro forte de esgoto no banheiro dos quarto, ar condicionado velho, de décadas. Café da manhã só alguns itens são incluídos, até a bebida café e água são pagas à parte. Equipe ainda muito atrapalhada. Não vale a pena.
