“10/10 we loved our stay at hotel acro iris!”
Gorgeous place to stay, staff were so helpful and kind and arranged all our transfers. The room was extremely comfortable and the pool is great to relax away from town which is only a short walk away. We loved our stay!

Everything. We enjoyed the pool/lobby area with unlimited coffee and tea options. The staff were great and our room was pretty spacious. Breakfast options were pretty good. Location is great as well, well tucked in but close enough (3 mins walk) to the main strip.

“Great stay, nice location, very relaxing - highly recommended!”
Wonderful, small, secluded hotel (in proximity of the main things, but quiet and not on the main street). Loved the pool - wonderful for a morning or evening dip. Exceptionally delicious breakfast with a variety of mostly European/ American options. Very friendly staff. All in all we had a lovely stay! Especially Steven, who was the waiter during breakfast on our first day, was super friendly, welcoming and helpful 🙏🏻

“Decent place, but not sure it lives up to its title of "Luxury Boutique Hotel"”
The staff was friendly and welcoming. The room was comfortable for our family of three. The breakfast was quite tasty. Very close to town and beaches (5-10 minute walk) while still being at a bit of remove from all the hustle and bustle.
