Exceptional
I’m writing this as a Travel Agent who has inspected and stayed in hundreds of hotels in my career. The Essence is an exceptional boutique hotel in a most perfect location, a very short stroll to the sea. Tastefully appointed decor with a touch of elegance which includes the inviting patio out front, to the extremely friendly and welcoming lobby and staff. I only know Sergio and Patricia by name however each staff member was exceptional. The restaurants are amazing, whether it’s a cafe latte in the lobby or the buffet for dinner or my ultimate favourite The Space Monkey restaurant and rooftop bar. Space Monkey should be Michelin star rated. The pool is warm and clean but very deep (buying a pool noodle helps ) and the 3 hot tubs or cool tubs in August was the best! The rooms are very small according to North American standards however we managed to find space for all our belongings. I only wish there was a coffee maker vs Espresso machine however once again, knowing this in advance, I brought my own coffee apparatus to make decent coffee. The hotel is surprisingly quiet considering there are restaurants galore out front along with markets and shops. Enjoy the beach promenade where there’s more restaurants, shops, bars, music, and activities for every age. 100 meters to the tour bus pickup. Easy walk into town. This is one of my favourite hotels and I’d love to say that we will return! ❤️
