Due to the surrounding area and the number of steps around the hotel, it may not be suitable for those with mobility difficulties.
Super beautiful evening at the restaurant. The staff made it very special for our wedding anniversary and were always attentive and welcoming. The food was delicious, compliments to the chef. I would definitely recommend if you are looking for a quiet, romantic dinner without having to worry about anything. Special thanks to Davidson and his team. Thank you very much!
Davisen was so hospitable. The service was magnificent and the food was exceptional. This is the perfect way to celebrate our one-week wedding anniversary!
I recently stayed at the Maritim Resort & Spa as a solo traveler, and overall, it was a lovely experience. The standout feature is definitely the team—as a solo guest, I really appreciated that staff members consistently checked in on me every evening to see how I was doing. They were genuinely warm and caring throughout my stay.
However, a few service details missed the mark. At meals, plates were occasionally cleared from the table before I had actually finished eating. There was also some inconsistency around all-inclusive drink availability: at one bar, I was told only rum shots were available, and on another occasion, three of us were informed that Sauvignon Blanc was out of stock, even though I knew the upstairs bar still had plenty available.
My takeaway for future guests is simple: if you run into any small issues, speak up and let the team know directly. They are wonderful people, but they can't fix things unless they know! Overall, a great property made special by its staff and honestly if you are not 100% happy speak to management and they will fix it
The setting was absolutely stunning and set the tone for an epic vacation. The staff were amazing, friendly, helpful and made us feel welcome. Antish and Manav were super attentive and catered to all our needs. The restaurants were brilliantly managed and most staff were super efficient and friendly. Vic, Deven, Yogesh, Vimla, Paolo ensured that we were attended to during all meals. And it was super exciting to meet our own South African chef, Liam. The rooms were kept in top notch condition throughout our stay and we looked forward to engaging with all the staff at the Resort every day.
Amazing food! Will definitely come again.
