The hotel boasts stunning views and a lovely sea salt pool, creating a beautiful setting for relaxation. The staff is helpful, and the spa services are worth indulging in. However, dining can be disappointing with a lack of clear labeling and poor entertainment options. Additionally, charging for Wi-Fi in a four-star hotel feels a bit steep.

I had a pleasant stay at the Peninsula Resort & Spa, but I found the all-inclusive service could use some enhancement. The views from the hotel are truly stunning, and while the staff were mostly friendly, the language barrier with the animation team was a drawback. The food quality could also be improved, as it felt repetitive after a few days. Overall, the hotel is a nice place but a few adjustments would make it even better.

My stay at the Peninsula Resort & Spa was truly unforgettable! The stunning Mediterranean views were a highlight of the trip, and the variety of delicious food offered at the buffets impressed me daily. While the beach access was fantastic, I did encounter a few hitches with room assignments initially, but the helpful staff resolved it swiftly. Overall, it was a lovely getaway, though some details could be fine-tuned to enhance the guest experience.

The hotel has a stunning location, offering breathtaking views and modern facilities. While I had a pleasant overall experience after a rocky start, the dining could use some improvement, especially in terms of food quality and options. Additionally, there were a few extra charges that surprised me regarding the all-inclusive offer. Nonetheless, the beautiful pools and spa facilities added to my enjoyment during the vacation.
