Perfect hotel, nice location, excellent indoor and outdoor pools, Gault Millau rated restaurant… still the overall experience was spoiled almost immediately upon our arrival. We couldn’t open our room door, so the staff lead personally by the owner of the hotel changed first the batteries. At our next attempt we could not open the door again. A bit tired and nervous I went to the reception desk, but they did not look very helpful. Anyway, the lock was repaired again, but no use, we could not enter again. Most of our time we spent on the corridor connecting the room and the reception. Finally, they offered to change to card lock to a classical key lock. This time we could enter to our room whenever it was needed. Until next morning. Someone knocked on our door early morning, introducing himself as maintenance, saying he will replace the whole lock system with a new one. He did, but we couldn’t enter to our room again. After several attempts, spending most of our time again on the corridor between our room and the reception, I asked to replace the electronic lock with the classic type key lock. The staff was not friendly any longer. I asked why didn’t the contact us prior repair attempts on our second day of visit, but never got a reply. This was the birthday of my wife. Earlier, the night before I noticed that persons celebrating their birthday at Larimar are getting a nice surprise. I asked the head of the restaurant on duty if they can prepare a surprise for my wife. Sure, he said, that’s usually a small cake for two with two glasses of champagne. My request was obviously noted, because the day after our table in the restaurant was decorated, and there was a humiliating present, a cheque worth 20 euros, but no cake, no champagne. When I asked this time the other head of the restaurant on duty what happened, and where is the ordered surprise, he disappeared and never got back. We arrived to a three day visit in the afternoon. The booked and paid service was full board, lunch and afternoon desert included, but we had to start with a dinner. You’ll get a lunch package on your departure, we’ve been told. Left the hotel before noon, but we never got our last meals. It’s a pity, because the place is lovely. But the human part of the service was simply horrible. Very unusual for the country.
