Tranquil Spa Experience

I recently had a peaceful spa day at Bernardus. The warming pool and spa space were beautifully designed and exceptionally comfortable. Despite a little road noise, it felt like a serene oasis. My friends enjoyed great massages, and I appreciated the overall calming atmosphere. I left feeling rejuvenated and refreshed!

Really good Dining Experience

Dining at Lucia was simply excellent. Every dish we tried was delicious, and the staff was incredibly helpful. The manager matched us with perfect wine selections, making our meal even more special. The breakfast room service was the best I've ever had, and I felt truly spoiled throughout our visit.

Luxurious Room Atmosphere

We stayed in a Vineyard View suite, which was more like an apartment than just a room. It had a huge living room, a cozy eating nook, and an amazing large bathroom with a soaking tub and outdoor shower. I loved the complimentary wine and snacks, and the private patio was perfect for evening relaxation.

Cozy and Inviting Bedroom

The Santa Lucia room was a true treat for our anniversary! It featured a beautiful balcony and a fireplace that created a lovely ambiance. The bed was incredibly comfortable, ensuring a restful night's sleep. Waking up to the peaceful view of the treetops made our stay lovely.

My stay at the hotel was filled with mixed experiences. The location was truly stunning and the hotel had a serene vibe, but the service was a letdown at times. The room was spacious and beautifully decorated, but not everything was perfect. Dining was another area that could use improvement, as some dishes didn't meet expectations. Overall, it has potential, but the inconsistencies were a bit frustrating.
