Exquisite!
We ate here on our last night and we have to say that this was an amazing experience. The views out to sea just added to the special occasion. The service provided by the waiters was first class and nothing was too much trouble.
The food itself was extremely well presented and very tasty. One tip- no need to order starters as you get a lovely selection of breads and dips and an aperitif before the main course arrives. We did order desserts and after our dessert came a complimentary taster cake. All the food was first class.

Amazing food
As we were staying in the Royal Sun Resort and it was our wedding anniversary while there, we opted to have a meal here to celebrate. We're so glad we did.
We had a meal here with our two daughters and they were spoiled rotten by the staff, particularly Vincente who looked after us so well for the night.
The menu and our options were explained to us clearly and we opted for the a la carte option but we were extremely tempted by the tasting menu, however with the kids in tow, it hardly seemed fair to them to see plate after plate come out for us!

Made our holiday
Our experience at the Aqua was delightful to celebrate a special birthday. The staff were attentive from the start, even apologising for not being able to put our table on the balcony due to the high winds!
Our inside table still had commanding views of the Atlantic and tables are well spaced you don't even notice other diners. We opted for the tasting menu, which was absolutely delicious. Every course explained by knowledgeable attentive staff.
From the speciality breads to the crayfish, tuna, veal, and culminating in a raspberry desert, the whole meal was a delight.
