Review summary
Based on recent reviews
Powered by AI
Guests consistently praise the Damare Resort & Spa for its luxurious feel and fantastic location, offering direct private access to the sea and amazing views from the spacious balconies and the rooftop infinity pool. The deluxe sea view rooms are well-appointed and comfortable, though some found the sunbeds by the pool not the best. Breakfast receives positive feedback for its variety, especially the pancakes, along with the other food served in the restaurants and pub. While generally appreciated, a few guests have noted that the quality of ingredients could be improved.

I found the team helpful, from reception to the restaurant. Angelica in the restaurant were great too assist me. The indoor pool allowed for relaxation after a day of exploring. My upgraded room was great. I appreciated the request to add a mattress topper for extra comfort.
The hotel's location, while convenient for travel, does have a slightly unkempt surrounding area, specifically some litter along the coast.

The room maintenance was not up to par. I found dust on the sockets and table corners. a towel hanger in the shower was loose. the breakfast, available until 10:00, was not replenished with vegetables and sweets after 09:00. this affected the overall quality of my stay.

fantastic stay!!!

beautiful hotelperfect foodconvenient transportation
I thought the hotel was beautiful, clean, and well kept. the staff in the bar were fantastic!!! the food was perfect at every meal. I ate there most of the time. the pictures show a great representation of the hotel. It wasn't misleading at all. buses are regular and cheap, traffic is a little difficult, and downloading the bolt app helps to get around easily.
the hotel is next to a somewhat busy road, but it wasn't a big issue.
