Spent 8 days here over the Christmas period. As a solo traveller it was perfect. Room was cleaned daily along with all the communal areas which were spotless. The heated pool and jacuzzi were amazing for a stay in December. Situated close to the beach/promenade. I was room only so cannot comment on food. A perfect stay. I will definitely return

The staff were lovely. The room was comfortable, light, and clean. The tv had English channels, which was great after a long day sight seeing. The shower was excellent. I can't comment on the restaurant, as it was closed for the week. However the hotel set out drinks and small breakfast pastries, which were tasty. It's an easy walk into the main town (if you use the lift, as the hill was steep!). Very good value for money.

Great hotel with good value for money in a quiet part of town. Only feedback is towels were very budget and the front desk could have been more helpful and friendly on a few occasions.

We planned a nice romantic meal at the Sky restaurant for our anniversary but there were 11 raucous men in the Jacuzzi at 8pm (bachelor party even though we lead to believe the jacuzzi would be closed at 7pm) this made our dinner arrangements impossible and we chose to leave. The staff were very understanding and apologetic. The hotel staff and amenities were wonderful and we shall definitely come again.

A bit overpriced
Staff were very helpful and friendly, but that didn't compensate for lack of options for breakfast, small pool, overpriced drinks in the rooftop bar (perhaps that's why it was half empty) and not a single space for parking, not even for luggage drop off.

My family and I had the most amazing time at the Essence Hotel Boutique! The hotel was like something out of a dream. Our room was super stylish and comfy, with the coziest bed ever. The pool area was our favorite spot – it was so relaxing to chill there and soak up the sun. The food was delicious too! We loved trying all the different dishes. The staff were super friendly and always happy to help. They made us feel so welcome. I would definitely recommend this hotel to anyone looking for a fun and unforgettable family vacation!
