My recent stay at the resort spa was quite pleasant, with clean and spacious rooms that offered stunning views of the surroundings. The staff was incredibly friendly and provided great service, making my family feel right at home. However, the dining options were somewhat limited, and the noise from nearby planes could be a bit disruptive. Overall, it was a good experience that felt like decent value for money.

I had a mixed experience at this resort. The views from the room were spectacular, with absolute waterfront sights that made my stay enjoyable. However, the rooms feel quite outdated and didn't match the photos I saw online, which was disappointing. The staff were lovely and really made me feel welcome, but the overall environment could use some updating. It's great for families with access to the beach and pools, but the condition of the facilities leaves something to be desired.

Rooms

The rooms were spacious and filled with light, but they were in need of serious updates. The taps and door locks were very corroded, and the overall decor didn't quite reflect what I expected based on the website.

I recently stayed at this resort spa, and while I loved the stunning ocean view and the family-friendly vibe, I found the rooms to be quite dated and in need of some serious attention. The service was fantastic, and I really appreciated the convenience of the grocery shopping service. Overall, it's a decent choice for families, but upgrading the rooms would really enhance the experience.

The rooms were in need of some attention, with issues like doors and windows unable to be locked or opened and some really old decor. There was also very low cold water pressure in the main bathroom, which was disappointing.

I had a mixed experience at this hotel. On the plus side, the view from my room was absolutely stunning, and the beach access was a dream! However, the room itself felt a bit dated and had some maintenance issues. The service from the staff ranged, with a few friendly faces but others who seemed unfriendly. Overall, it was a decent stay but not without its drawbacks.
