    This was truly fantastic. I appreciate that even during the low season and with just a few guests in the hotel, everything worked perfectly, and all the staff was present. Excellent food for both breakfast and dinner with many options. Nice clean room, friendly welcome,... Everything was great.

    There were some building works going on and the noise was quite loud and uncomfortable during siesta time or if you are a late morning sleeper. But I imagine that once the works are finished the hotel is going to be amazing again

    Perfect location by the sea, lovely swimming pools. Great breakfast and options for dinner. Availability of activities to do during the day. The room was very comfortable and the staff very friendly and helpful.

    Severin has a wide facade towards the beach, with two restaurants/bars right overlooking the indian ocean, which is a really nice set-up. The rooms are spacious, with balconies slightly tilted so that everyone enjoys some privacy and a little bit of sea view. Good design of buildings, very nice and helpful staff. Good breakfast and dinner. I do belive that the standard goes beyond the level of other big names but the price is much more friendly. Would highly recommend staying in Severin.

    Everything was lovely! Breakfast was very diverse, staff were all wonderful, the only feedback is the bathrooms need to be maintained better. I will give an honorable mention to Wilson, who helped us out in the middle of the night when we were going to miss our flight due to some last minute emergencies. Thanks again for that!

    There was a little bit of interruption to the water supply due to maintenance, bug this is quite understandable. They are going a great job in all areas👍.

    A good experience overall, I will definitely come back. The general ambience is great, I don't like loud music and noise so I appreciated the connection with nature, cleanliness, friendly staff and management, a wide selection of good food and presentation.

    WE booked a ground floor apartment ( it said so on my booking. com confirmation) ; but we were given an upstairs one - which was lovely, but more difficult for my husband who has Parkinsons to climb the spiral staircase

    We had an overnight stay, and it took 1.5 hours from the airport. The staff were friendly and attentive. The location on the beachfront is stunning. The grounds are beautifully clean and tidy. The rooms are unique and well- appointed. I wish we could have stayed longer!

    There was nothing that I could point to. Keep up the good work.while the facilities are great, I think the staff makes the place great.

    The grounds,rooms, and staff were all top notch. Just what is needed on a coastal getaway. when next I'm in the area this will be my spot. I look forward to staying again following the planned rebuilding of the beach bar.
