Satisfactory Stay

comfy bedspacious roomamazing staff
I found the beds huge and comfy. Rooms were spacious and clean, also the bathroom had a really powerful shower. Breakfast was delicious and the staff was amazing. They were always smiling and ready to assist.
The TV was rather small for the size of the room , and I thought a bigger fixture would be better.
Facilities
8/10
The spa had a lovely relaxing atmosphere , however , I think it could benefit from additional amenities such as a hot tub or relaxation room. More loungers in the pool area would also be beneficial.
