Concierge "The richly brocaded suites and private villas have huge marble tubs in the bathrooms."
Condé Nast Traveler "The opulent decor—think Delacroix meets Vanity Fair photo shoot—is especially evident in the men’s Turkish bath, where paintings of sheet-draped harem girls adorn the walls." Full review
Time Out "Opulence pours from every wall and it feels grand, but slightly overwhelming, too – you wouldn’t want to walk into this place in scruffy shorts and flip flops." Full review

Rough Guide "Best features are the extensive grounds and beach, complete with three larger-than- average pools, perhaps the most attractive of any of the marina hotels."
