Hotel Punta Est

This is no ordinary hotel it’s located on a cliff face overlooking the ever inviting sea. The Staff are exceptional. To assist you on the steep climb to the reception you have the services of the hotel golf buggy. The terraces just make you smile. Breakfast overlooking the Mediterranean is my idea of total joy. Dinner is more personal as the staff are so friendly and helpful. Our bedroom had a wonderful view of the sea from our window. The room is spacious and cool. They have an excellent pool if you are are too lazy to go down to the sea. The hole is located to the east of the main town. There is a loveley promenade to amble along the beach front there are many lounging areas to choose from as well as excellent restaurants. The local bus service goes past the front gates of the hotel. Settling up the bill at the end of the week was a nice surprise on how reasonable the stay was.

Superb experience. View, surroundings and staff was 6 stars. The restaurant (evening) four stars. The dinner service is very ambitious, but the actual food did not blow us away. The mood is like “now we will serve you Michelin food” and that is probably why one get a little disappointed. But it did not spoil the end result.

We had a wonderful 4-day stay here. Such a beautiful, unique place, baby/kid friendly (not so much in terms of space or safe play areas—besides the pool and little frog and snail statues outside—but in terms of how friendly and welcoming the staff is toward them, and the fact that there were other small kids there with multi-generational families as well)… The food is great. Can’t say enough about the staff; everyone was friendly, helpful, cheerful. From the people cleaning rooms to the waiters to the people tending to the grounds… thank you everyone at Punta Est!
