    poor service
    inadequate air conditioning

    The air conditioning in our room was inadequate, making it uncomfortably warm overnight. On top of that, we had a disappointing experience at Terra Secca. The service was terrible. we were often overlooked and waited far too long for our orders in a side room with no charm.

    beautiful pool
    top-notch service
    incredible dining
    secluded location
    limited evening entertainment

    Had an amazing time with my friends! We loved the beautiful pool area and the archery experience was super fun. The service was top-notch, and dining options were incredible. Just a heads up for future guests, the spa has limited relaxation space unless you book a treatment.

    The hotel felt very secluded, and it was a bit of a hassle to arrange for taxis ahead of time. The rooftop bar was closed for a private event, which was disappointing since we wanted some evening entertainment.

    splash pad
    attentive butler
    horseback riding
    limited seating

    the pool had limited seating. but the kids loved the splash pad and swim-up bar. Our butler was super attentive, bringing snacks and drinks right to us. Evening horseback riding was a highlight, offering beautiful views of the desert.

    desert views
    beautiful pool
    weak air conditioning
    bright lighting

    Reasons to love it – and reasons not to

    The stunning desert views captivated me the moment I arrived. The pool area was beautifully designed with ample shaded cabanas, perfect for relaxation while enjoying refreshing drinks from the swim-up bar.

    Unfortunately, the room’s air conditioning struggled to maintain a comfortable temperature, which disrupted my sleep. The restaurant lighting in the Italian eatery was overly bright, making it feel less intimate than I had hoped.

    The hotel is beautifully decorated, blending rustic charm with modern luxury. The serene landscaping and well-maintained pathways made it easy for me to explore the grounds, ensuring comfortable accessibility for all guests, including seniors.

    More seating in common areas would be appreciated.

    The property itself is incredible, the staff

    were overly accommodating and friendly. Every worker we met made our stay fantastic. However, we found the amenities could be clearer to navigate. Overall, we felt very welcomed and enjoyed our time immensely.

    dirty floor

    The cleanliness of the room floor left a lot to be desired. it simply didn’t feel clean enough for my family to comfortably walk around without shoes, especially with a small baby. Additionally, dining options are limited and rather overpriced, which might leave guests feeling their wallets are lighter than their stomachs—so be cautious if you're relying solely on room charges for meals.
