Reviews
We visited the Italian restaurant’ Cala Bella’ and whilst we enjoyed most of our starters we didn’t really enjoy our main courses with the food feeling pre prepared and warmed up rather than fresh. We sent some back and there was no quibble about taking these off the bill but it was a disappointing dining experience. For that money in a top class hotel everything should be freshly prepared
We felt that some of the charges were excessive, a 20% service charge on a $30 self serve breakfast buffet is scandalous . Similarly $32/day for self parking felt excessive.
This was our third visit to this hotel- will there be a fourth ?
We always book a 3 bedroom 2 bath condo and it’s just enough space for 3-4 people. The space is always clean, and you have a full kitchen, dining space, living room, and balcony.
They are doing construction on their pool so just be aware that you won’t have access during construction.
Cafe and Restaurants near hotel
I look forward to my next visit.
I had the Western Burger with A veggie patty and it was so tasty. The BBQ sauce was the perfect amount and although at first I would've like the onion rings that came on the burger to be larger they were actually a good size and my burger stayed pretty much in tack until the end.
The side portions we got were a little on the small side. Not too much but for us just a tad too little. Either way we walked out of there pretty stuffed and satisfied. Definitely going back again.
While waiting for my order, I noticed that I had been overcharged...which apparently was due to “pepper mustard” versus regular mustard. Slightly annoying, but not a deal breaker. The cashier seemed indifferent when I told her about the error.
My to go order was made quickly, and I was on my way. Once I got back to the condo, the disappointment began. The fried pickles didn’t even fill the 12 ounce cup, and appeared to have been thawed and re-frozen prior to frying. 3 or 4 were attached in each clump, which meant that the middle of each clump was not cooked. My wife stated the sweet potato fries were tasteless, and despite the cinnamon sugar topping, she didn’t finish them. The portion size of the sweet potato fries was also lacking.
The burgers were...well...interesting to say the least. My burger wasn’t even wrapped properly, and had literally been thrown in the bag sideways. More toppings were on the paper and the bottom of the bag than were on the burger. My wife said that her burger was “OK”, but nothing better than you would find elsewhere. My burger was tasty, and that’s the only reason for 2 stars rather than 1, but the meal was definitely not worth $29.
For a restaurant that prides itself on being better than Five Guys, they could certainly learn a few things from them.
Thank you for great customer service.
