Luxury personified

Absolute perfection. Cannot fault this hotel. Yes, it’s expensive. But it’s also peak luxury. Would recommend time & time again. In-house dining options (Terasu & Marmor) are also 10/10. No reason to leave the hotel!

Perfect stay!

Great stay at Ardo, beautiful view from the ocean front room, spotlessly clean, great bathroom products. Rooftop infinity pool is Instagram worthy! Had dinner in Terrasu, which was excellent!

Ardo

Great stay at Ardo, spotlessly clean, comfortable, great staff and fabulous food. Only negatives are that the hotel doesn’t offer breakfast, you have to go to the Ville next door. Also, I would expect a hotel of this standard to have a coffee machine in the room.

The Staff and accommodation was wonderful. Sound-proof walls was great during the storms. Worth the stay!
