The building, the room, the beach, the pool, the spa, the location and the service were just excellent more

We went to the Residence for 12 nights in September. After a very long flight we arrived in the middle of a horrendous downpour...not a great start! From the moment we arrived at the hotel, the staff could not do enough to ensure every single moment of our holiday was magical. From the butler who offered to unpack our suitcase... more
