Hotel L'Auberge

Loved the grounds and swimming pool. Location was perfect. Very disappointed in our check-in. We arrived late at night after a long day of travel. We were exhausted and happy to be brought to our very large and well- equipped room shortly before midnight. We began to unpack, when the staff returned to tell us we were in the wrong room. We packed up our things are were led to a much smaller room with fewer amenities. Disappointing to say the least as there was clearly no one staying in that room. They apologised and threw in a bottle of wine. For the price we paid, I would have expected more. But we very much enjoyed the place, and the proximity to the ocean.

My husband and I stayed at a hotel, we booked the best room we saw on Booking.com, we paid a lot, and it was totally disappointing. The room was very small, the shower was bad, the toilet flush was broken, the breakfast was very basic, the dinner options were poor… I'm a vegetarian, I couldn't eat almost anything. We researched and wanted the best of Punta, but it certainly wasn't.

I cannot speak highly enough of l’auberge. The family room is the perfect setup for a family. The beds are super comfortable, heated floors are great for cold nights, and the showers may have the best water pressure I’ve ever experienced. Fireplace was a great place to unwind at the end of the night. The grounds are beautiful. Service was perfect. We didn’t have dinner at the restaurant, but breakfast had a nice variety of foods (coffee was probably the only place they were lacking). Walls are thin but it’s a charming old hotel and the guests here are quiet. Would definitely stay here again.

One of our favorite hotel stays, ever. The grounds are beautiful, the service is excellent, and the rooms (suites, really) are perfectly set up. We loved having a fire in the evenings (we visited in winter). The breakfast was lovely, and the much-anticipated afternoon waffles were delicious. I only hope we are lucky enough to return one day!

A wonderful family lunch in a sensational location. Peaceful, beautifully landscaped gardens. This is a hidden jewel that should be experienced to be believed.

So the first thing I should say is it’s winter so out of season.|The property is old and quaint as many places are here and some form of landmark, so lots of history and cute. |My room was in the main water tower, I’m not sure if that’s the location of all the rooms.|Let’s get back to the rooms later. |The decor is very traditional throughout with soft music playing, and I’d say romantic and soothing. |In winter there was an open fire lit in the main building where you can sit and relax and a lovely grand piano is in view. |There are separate buildings joined to the main water tower building in which guests have to enter via exterior courtyard to the rear. |The grounds and gardens are well presented and I can imagine how this would come alive in summer.|The breakfast was 9/10. A great spread and additional options of cooked eggs and omelettes for example. Exceptional service. The omelette I had was cooked to perfection, almost best on my entire trip. |I didn’t experience any other food. The staff are all beautiful and accommodating, nothing is too much trouble. |The rooms I felt were the major let down. They are of unusual size due to the structural columns holding the building up and small. So let’s put that aside and we accept that due to the nostalgia of the building. Windows have been upgraded to double glazed so sound is no issue and the temperature was fine during winter. |The wardrobes were old and run down and poor lighting as in so many of these hotels, and very basic fixtures throughout including a pathetic Tv. It’s the only hotel I’ve ever stayed in that has no coffee and tea making facilities. In addition to that I was charged for basic bottled water. |The beds were slightly soft but comfortable, I had a good sleep.|The shower was over the bath with a curtain and not ideal for me but it was hot and good pressure. |Having said all of that it was very clean, no questions there. |Red wine selection by the glass was poor to what I like hence me not staying for dinner as a like a glass of red with my meal. |I didn’t feel the place was located in a great location if you don’t have a car but it was a peaceful part of town. |The Gym was small/ basic and bordering dangerous as run down and from the1980 if I’m honest. |I didn’t know what to expect when I booked this place and it was a little disappointing at first but the place grew on me and if you can deal with a small basic room and no gym I think you’ll be happy.|I think an upgrade of the rooms and bathrooms would make this place next level but when can a hotel do a renovation? It has to close I suppose. My score of 3.5/5 and I guess if I came back and didn’t find anything else I would reconsider especially if I was with a partner.

Lovely hotel with wonderful helpful staff in a great location. Good wines, good food, very relaxing. And the free bikes were a bonus. Thankyou

Can’t imagine a better place. The room was as cosy as it gets and the service was impeccable. All in a beautiful location.
