| - I'm currently writing this review live. We arrived on Sunday and have had a pretty decent time here. Since this is a 5 start resort, at $500 a night, I expect 8/10 or higher, no excuses.
The pool apparently is not getting serviced after 5 because of the current manager on duty (5-13-14). The 2 young employees, while standing around, told me that it's because Centro Lounge has a private party (20 people). Don't try to make sense of it, it doesnt.
We are visiting family from los angeles and wanted a 5 start resort. Started with a lovely welcome. Bell hops were very attentive and helpful.
Dinner time
Going on 5 minute wait for Prado. Here she is.
Hostess is ok. Not very excited to see us. Maybe because we're wearing shorts.
Oliviero is our waiter. So far he has been very attentive and gives the place real class, justifying the $$$$ prices.
I just asked hislm what his least favorite dish was and he pretty much danced around it, not a problem, understandable.
My wife ordered the scallops
Sister in law and brother: chicken sandwich and the burger
Myself: lamb sausage and ribs tapas
The bread deserves a mention. Warm, freshly baked, delicious.
Oliviero just advised on changing my order, suggesting that it will compliment each other better. Great, sub ribs for Flatbread to compliment the lamb sausage. Let's wait and see.
Dinner went well. Wonderful service and everyone enjoyed their selection. The waiter provided a very pleasant evening for us all.
The day ended on a good note. That pool manager is truly a moron. Ruined a couple of hours of our stay. Thank you Oliviero for bringing us back to a happy place.
