A lovely hotel situated in the middle of a rural area so driving is a must. Indoor and outdoor pools, sauna and treatment rooms available. Food was good but repetitive so most days we had breakfast then spent of the day out and had dinner before going back to the hotel.

Very quiet and peaceful area. Amazing views on the nature from our bedroom. Nice hotel and room. Comfortable beds. Great breakfast (good choice). Nice swimming-pool. Friendly staff. It would have been nice to have a kettle in the bedroom for tea and coffee. Also the -2 floor (under the swimming-pool) was leaking and the ceiling there needed to be fixed and needed a little paint.

This is a lovely hotel with a beautiful view and pool. The rooms are spacious and clean. The hotel is a little isolated and you do have to drive to get to restaurants, beaches, town, but not very far. There is a restaurant and a bar and you get a fridge in your room.

Stunning views, friendly and helpful staff, good locational. However even after booking the Spa there was no staff there to facilitate and we were not able to use this. The room shower leaked. Not often staff at reception to help. Dinner was not good and very overpriced for what it was. The hotel is in need of upkeep.

From the moment you drive up the long driveway to Enigma, your first thoughts are that it’s a stunning hotel, an architect’s delight, with amazing views over the countryside. However there were some flaws of the hotel we noticed soon after entering the lobby. The hotel has so much potential to be more and do better than it was. Let me explain: No one was on the front desk at check in time and we were waiting for 10 minutes or so for someone to come greet us. The gentleman who did greet us was friendly and welcoming, however we found the whole service quite slow. There’s potential here to improve. The bedroom itself was large, with a good sized King Bed and a balcony with a view over the countryside. Some furnishings were a little dated and rusty however. There is potential to improve here. We visited the outdoor pool for the afternoon and this was nice, however the jacuzzi was closed and the pool itself seemed like it needed some better upkeep eg the pool ladder wasn’t properly secured and seemed broken. There’s potential to improve it here. We had a complimentary spa pass (via Expedia VIP Rewards), but this wasn’t offered to us at check in, so we didn’t see the spa. Breakfast the next morning was underwhelming to say the least. There was fruit, cereals, a few bits of charcuterie and cooked food to choose from, but the food itself lacked flavour. Also the coffee was undrinkable. All in all, this hotel has plenty of potential to be something greater than it is already.

Enigma has a great location and, in my opinion, the concept of the hotel has a lot of potential. Unfortunately, the overall experience did not quite live up to what we expected, especially considering the price we paid. The hotel is clearly in need of better maintenance. There was mould visible on some of the walls, the pool did not look particularly clean, and the spa felt quite outdated. The gym was also very poor, with only a few machines and very limited equipment. We also had dinner at the hotel. It was okay, but nothing particularly special or memorable. The breakfast was another disappointment. It felt quite limited, and for the price of the stay, we expected a much wider choice and more variety. We also found it surprising that there were no complimentary tea and coffee facilities in the room. Nowadays, many hotels provide at least a kettle with tea and coffee, even if it’s a basic offering especially having paid for a superior room in a 4 star hotel. Overall, Enigma has a fantastic concept and a lot of potential, and the location is definitely a plus. However, the lack of maintenance and the limited facilities and services make it difficult to justify the price. With some investment and attention to detail, this could be a really special hotel.

Breakfast was very good. Pool was ok- water quite warm and nice. Unfortunately, the room wasn't soundproof as advertised. Also, as advertised there was supposed to be a spa service included and a free drink. Spa service turned out to be just access to pool/sauna/Turkish bath; while free drink for two was a standard bottle of water in the room... quite misleading.. Overall, was a nice stay but nothing special for this price

Cet hôtel charme d'emblée par son architecture et son design intérieur particulièrement réussis. Toutefois, le plaisir du séjour est en partie atténué par quelques faiblesses au niveau de l'entretien (ex.: problème de climatisation, lampe non fonctionnel, robinetterie qui mériterait d'être resserrée, présence d'algues dans la piscine, etc.). L'établissement possède un cachet indéniable, mais un suivi plus rigoureux de la maintenance lui permettrait de retrouver tout son standing.
