The hotel provides a clean and spacious environment, but the amenities fall short of what I expected from a resort. While the staff made an effort to assist with our room setup, the overall experience was marred by a lack of atmosphere and underwhelming facilities. It's quite overpriced for what it offers, especially considering some issues during our stay.

The rooms were clean and spacious, but they didn't meet our specific setup requests initially. The bed was comfortable, but there were maintenance issues like a faulty sliding door lock and a detached screen.

The staff were quick to address our room setup problems, which was appreciated. However, the overall service could not compensate for other disappointments.

The location involved a not-so-convenient beach walk, requiring crossing a busy road which isn't ideal for families.

I was really disappointed with my stay at this resort. While the staff were friendly, the overall experience just didn't live up to what I expected, especially for the price. The rooms were clean, but many facilities were either underwhelming or not well-maintained, which takes away from the resort vibe. The supposed beach access was inconvenient and overall, I didn’t get good value for my money.

I had a decent stay at this resort, but it definitely has its flaws. The spacious apartments were nice and close to shops, but they desperately need a good clean and some new furniture. I was disappointed with several amenities missing and the state of cleanliness in our unit. Overall, it didn’t feel worth the price we paid.

The resort is conveniently close to shops, but the advertised beach access was misleading as it’s quite a trek to 13th beach.

The resort had potential with its clubhouse and grounds, but many of the facilities appeared neglected.

Our stay at the resort was quite disappointing. We expected fantastic amenities and dining options but faced numerous issues. The rooms were decent but lacked brightness and personality, and the customer service left a lot to be desired. It's a shame because the potential is there, but we certainly felt that overall, the stay didn’t match the advertised experience.

While the grounds were tidy and well-kept, there wasn't much else to claim as a highlight.

We had an overall good experience during our stay at the resort. The staff, especially Sue and Michael, were incredibly helpful and made us feel welcome. However, the atmosphere wasn't exactly peaceful with disruptive guests during our first night, and I do wish the restaurant had more dining options available without a reservation. The spa was a fantastic highlight, but the limited pool access due to weather was a downside.

Rooms

Our one-bedroom apartment was clean, tidy, and had a comfortable bed. However, I noticed the carpets could really use a cleaning.

The spa services were delightful and just what we needed to unwind. The outdoor pool area looked inviting, but we couldn't use it due to the weather.
