"Staff were all so lovely and the property is stunning. The studios are very spacious and the amenities and restaurants are easy to book and the food was great across the board. They also have a free shuttle a few times a day to the town which is fantastic <3"
"The main advantage is that the hotel sits right next to a spacious beach with plenty of sunbeds. The food quality was excellent, but it lacked variety. We were there for over a week and found that our meal choices were similar, especially for breakfast. The dining hosts were friendly, but on some days the same or different hosts lacked warmth and didn't feel welcoming. The waiting staff were amazing and very friendly, although one gentleman was quite rude when we chose a certain spot to sit and pointed us to other available tables (without considering that it was easier for us to be seated in a quiet spot with fewer distractions for our daughter). Our room had air conditioning, but it was consistently set to a fan setting and didn't cool the room. When we questioned this at reception, they said they had changed the settings so it wouldn't cool in all guest rooms given the time of year (so all settings for every guest had to be the same and not separate, which is strange, as everyone should be able to adjust their A/C individually as they find suitable for them). The reception staff then said they would change the settings back after back-and-forth calls with the Director. For all-inclusive, note that top-brand drinks are not included as "all-inclusive" drinks, which was very disappointing. A special shout-out to the security lady on the beach who was so friendly and welcoming every time we saw her. She was so accommodating, and made the effort to say hello to our daughter."
"Beautiful hotel and comfortable bed
We were just there one night to sleep and it was super comfortable
Parking was a little harder to figure out and limited space
The location is very close to
The ferry and we rented a car
It would have been easier maybe if we got a short taxi ride over or maybe walked and picked up our car the next day
But overall very happy with the accommodations"
"Great Hotel Resort. Excellent Breakfast, nice rooms and pools, professional and very helpfull staff, well located with almost "private" Sea Beach. Incredible Sea view. If possible I will keep visiting them almost every year."
