Lovely welcome and all staff friendly. Very clean but tap in bathroom being eco friendly very annoying!
Unfortunately our stay was spoilt by an outside event taking place next door to our room that kept us awake until after midnight. They did offer a massage the following day but the damage had been done otherwise it was a lovely place to stay.

A Great Experience
The hotel itself is beautiful, well-maintained and spotlessly clean. There is a sense of space and lots of little areas you can take yourself off to for a little bit of privacy.
Everyone who works at the hotel is friendly and authentic and without a doubt it is the Team at the Irida which made our stay that extra little bit specials. Always welcoming, willing to help and professional. We loved our stay.

This is a truly special property. Fantastic service, beautiful accommodations and a 3 minutes walk(downhill) to the beach. My only concern is that I booked and paid for a superior suite and was given a smaller room than I paid for. The room was enough space so I didn’t complain but I would have preferred to be informed and compensated for the smaller room.
