For a 5 star resort one would assume things like bathrobes and slippers would be part of the room, and that was missing. Also, limited pool lounge chairs and you have to pay to use the lounge chairs it is not included in your stay. Overall nice resort it is clean, staff is friendly, rooms a cleanyou have the small town within walking distance to enjoy.

Disappointed Stay

Our stay at the Savoy did not live up to expectations. Given its high rating and 5-star status, we anticipated a seamless, high-class experience, but instead found ourselves constantly being asked to pay extra for basic amenities — €70 per bed to lie by the pool, €35 per person to use the sauna, breakfast not included, and so on. The food was well below standard: dry, lacking flavour, and served with underwhelming service in the restaurants. The building itself is undeniably beautiful, but overall, the experience felt far from the premium quality we expected from such a renowned hotel. We left feeling disappointed rather than indulged.

I stayed at Saccharum Resort & Spa and while the stunning views are an obvious highlight, what really stood out to me was the hotel’s design. It honours its past as a former sugar cane factory — with original machinery cleverly integrated into the lobby and hallways. Think softened brutalism: raw textures balanced by warm materials, plenty of natural light, and an organic palette that ties everything back to the surrounding mountains. The attention to detail is impressive!!! Our room was gorgeous — it overlooked the ocean, and with the mountains rising just beside us, we felt perfectly tucked between both. A rare and calming combination. Even when the hotel was busy, it never felt crowded. There are multiple lounging areas, and we always found a spot to relax. The pools were a highlight — especially the indoor one, which is beautifully designed, heated, and great for cooler days or when you want a break from the sun. The large window looking out at the mountains makes being indoors feel like part of the experience. The food was varied and healthy, and we appreciated how the hotel clearly communicated when breakfast would be busy — a small but thoughtful detail that made a difference. And if you’re looking for more variety, there are plenty of restaurants nearby. The staff were consistently courteous, multilingual, and genuinely helpful — from check-in to daily service. Saccharum strikes a rare balance: thoughtful design, warm hospitality, and a peaceful atmosphere.

Beautiful resort and property. Room was just as pictured. We loved the location and the beach and beach club across the street. Only negative I would say is all the fees and automatic tips taken out. I did not like how they added tips on to all meals at the location. So if you tipped yourself they ended up taking additional money for another tip. Very misleading.
