Mestil Hotels & Residences

Mestil Hotels & Residences

10/10 Excellent
"The value for money that you get at Mestil (especially at Expedia's discounted rates) is just incredible. The staff were all friendly and very helpful. The rooms are amazing, more like an apartment than a hotel! The environment is just heavenly and the food is very good. Since the lunch/dinner buffet's are a bit expensive (by local standards) you can save money by ordering food delivered on Glovo or cooking for yourself in your room since I think most rooms have a kitchen, which is amazing for extended stays. The pool is very well kept and beautiful but a bit small, 10-15 people maximum to really feel comfortable. Overall I can't recommend Mestil enough. I'll be back again and again for sure. I came with my wife and our two year old daughter. I do wish that there was a playground for kids but the pool was enough for us!"
