"The staff are beautiful and helpful.
The property is dated and needs upgrading, the bed in our room was rock hard.
The pool area is wonderful and provides tennis, kayaks, cabana’s, massive pool and many more activities. Certainly a good place if you have children."
"Had a bad experience when a hotel driver didn’t collect us as scheduled at night and we felt in danger. Didn’t feel like evening staff knew much about the tours or options for transport available.
Parts of the hotel room were broken such as the security latch on the door and fan knobs. Wardrobe doors wouldn’t close. No options for streaming on the TV without compatible devices. No snorkels available for use or hire. Felt it really wasn’t a 5 star hotel standard."
