5* ideas but 2* execution
My wife and I booked one of Amorita's villas at £340 per night for 3 might. When we arrived, the staff were friendly and helpful, and our room was beautiful. They even provided us with a complimentary bottle of cava.
The resort is brimming with lovely ideas but the reason that I have given it 3 star is the execution of those ideas.
The beautiful private beach is actually covered with piles of old lorry tyres, broken boats, and litter. The gym had no power and a few lonely machines. Watching the sunset in the main bar highlighted how dirty the floor was. The hammocks sit in a wasteland between one of the restaurants and the hotel rooms. There are loads of maintenance issues across the resort from big cracks in the concrete to poor finishes. And everything is charged at a premium - including the 5 minute airport transfer which costs P800 - or £11 at time of writing. That's more expensive than London!
If Amorita what to sell a premium holiday and charge £340 per night, I expect a resort that gives a premium feel. I have no doubt that it had that when it opened in 2007 but I don't think it's been loved as much as it should have been over the years.
