"Breakfast was amazing with everything you needed including cava! The house keeping kept the room beyond clean throughout the stay and also called in later to check everything was ok, they absolutely smashed it keeping the room in tip top condition. The hotel was definitely 5 star, the whole resort is massive with plenty to do which includes fine dining, pool fun and a casino.
