However, the breakfast was quite lackluster, which was a disappointment given the rest of my experience. Overall, it's a charming boutique hotel perfect for relaxation! 🌴✨

My stay at Villa Royale was truly good, with stunning decor and a serene atmosphere that made relaxation easy. The attentive staff, especially Lisette by the pool, added a personal touch to my experience. However, the bathroom in my villa was quite small, which could be an issue for some.

The hotel is in a low-key residential area, which I liked for the peace and quiet. It's a bit of a trek to the main attractions, about a 30-minute walk, which was a downside for me.

Breakfast offerings were quite poor, consisting of just a croissant, muffin, and a hard-boiled egg. It really let the hotel down, as I was expecting more for the morning meal.
