A nice enough property , pleasent staff. I personally found the hotel a little isolated from things but if you enjoy a little more peace this might be your place. Nothing really detrimental to say and would consider use again.

10/10 Exceptional

Stayed with family. We arrived late due to flight delay, warm welcome from the receptionist. I was delighted with the room upgrade and bottle of wine, as a gold member. The 324 room was very spacious and clean. It has a balcony overlooking part of the pool area and surrounding ground. Breakfast in the morning had a wide variety, after 9am it gets busy.The Pool facilties were clean and plenty of loungers avaliable. There is indoor pool, I didnt use it. Mainly outside with 2 large pools and 2 small for children. There is a kids play area with swing and slide. Hotel provides free shuttle bus to old town, new town and sister hotel. Nice late checkout of 12pm no need to rush after breakfast. Overall its a pleasant stay and I would definitely come again. Thank you 😊
