Carrington Estate

My friends and I had an amazing stay at the Carrington Estate 3-bedroom villa, which offers stunning views of the sea and golf course. The golf course is beautifully designed, providing both a fantastic challenge and a relaxing playing experience. We enjoyed golfing in a laid-back atmosphere, having a BBQ and wine on the deck while watching the sunset and star-lit sky, savouring a delicious lunch and coffee at the restaurant, and indulging in pizzas at the winery café. Each experience was enhanced by breath-taking views and the attentive, welcoming staff. This was my second visit, but even four nights and five days weren’t enough—we’ll definitely be back!

Lovely location and property. Friendly staff and excellent food. Views and nearby locations were unbelievable.

Room was comfortable and clean. Maybe needed some touch up paint. Staff were extremely cordial, just loved them Food was mediocre at best, steak not cooked as requested- asked for medium rare steak and it was way overcooked. Eggs for breakfast weren’t cooked as requested, by the gentleman working in the kitchen. Wine prices in the room or reception were great, we loaded up. Restaurant prices were over twice the price. Golf course appears to be an afterthought, bald greens, unkemp bunkers.

The room was a good size, it was quiet which was appreciated & had pleasant views. The Restaurant was very good in the Hotel and in the Winery. The Staff were exceptionally helpful & pleasant

The bathrooms and towels/robes etc need updating/replacing The gym is very basic

Rooms were nice

Service for value was terrible

My wife and I are elderly, still work, and like to treat ourselves with a bit of luxury occasionally. We love classy hotels. We are not golfers but Carrington Estate is a lovely place. We had the best room in the Lodge. Great views over the golf course to the ocean beyond. Had a game of pool in the Library. All good so far. The restaurant.... The food was excellent, but some of the staff are exceptionally rude, arrogant, and argumentative. This is what happened. We ordered a bottle of Sauvignon Blanc off the restaurant wine list. Our young waitress came back and apologized that they had sold out of their own Sauvignon. (Carrington have their own vineyard). Thier's was the only Sauvignon Blanc on the wine list which struck me as a little unusual for a restaurant of this standard? We don't drink other styles of wine. I asked our waitress if I could retrieve a bottle of our own Sauvy from our room fridge. That was fine she said, and when I returned she had brought two wine glasses to the table. After our food arrived another waitress/duty manager, Emma C stopped at our table and told us that we couldn't drink our own wine. I explained the whole story but she just got angry, stood there with her hands on her hips and "told us off" loudly. She threatened to confiscate our bottle and then called for back-up from a male colleague, Giovanni. They both stood over us, arguing loudly. I invited Giovanni to sit at our the table so we could discuss this without causing us embarrassment in front of the other guests. Nope. Our food was now going cold so I asked them both to leave us alone and explained that my wife and I both work in tourism/sales and customers/guests should never be treated like this. We hurriedly finished our meals, paid and left. But this wasn't good enough for them. They apologized to all the other guests in the restaurant but blamed us for bringing in our own wine. Of course they didn't mention we had permission, and there was no Sauvy available for purchase. No, they were the heros and we were the bad guys. We were humiliated. We couldn't use the restaurant in the morning because all the other guests would have recognized us. We didn't do anything wrong. The bullying actions of Emma C and and Giovanni wreaked our day off and has damaged the reputation of Carrington Estate. Shame on you.

This place was wonderful. So beautiful and everyone was so nice. Highly recommend this place!
