I had a somewhat surreal experience during my stay. While the hotel was centrally located and offered a nice pool area, I barely encountered any staff apart from check-in and check-out. The room was nice enough, but the balcony view was obstructed. Overall, it was decent value for money, but I wish the service had been more attentive and the bathroom extractor fan functional.

I only saw a staff member at check-in and check-out, and housekeeping was minimal, with just the bins emptied and some new toiletries on the second day.

I had an amazing stay at this resort! The spacious rooms with air conditioning were a blessing, especially in the heat. The pool area was absolutely stunning, providing a perfect escape. Although the Wi-Fi was down due to a storm, the staff responded quickly, getting it fixed. Overall, excellent dining experiences and attentive service made it a memorable trip, but adding some seating in the rooms would have made them even better.

I had a pleasant stay at the hotel, enjoying a spacious family apartment that was both clean and comfortable. The pool was a hit with the kids, but the noise from the bar and early morning traffic was a bit of a downside. Although the breakfast was decent, the dining experience had some inconsistencies with the dinner menu. Overall, I would consider staying there again, especially for the location and space.

The staff were warm and efficient, though dining could be slow at times. Overall, it was a great value for a relaxing getaway, but the Wi-Fi could use some improvement.

My stay at this hotel was enjoyable overall. The spacious rooms were comfortable and the pool offered a nice escape from the heat. Dining options in the hotel restaurant were fantastic, especially the breakfast. However, I was a bit disappointed that the Wi-Fi was down due to a storm, but the quick resolution showed good service. It's a bit of a bummer that the rooms felt a little outdated despite being clean and cozy.
