fantastic stay!

smooth check-inattentive waitersamazing foodlovely room
the check-in process was smooth and the staff member helped carry my suitcase. the waiters kept the tables clean and this prevented insects. housekeeping and chefs deserve recognition for their amazing work. i only ate out once because the variety of food offered daily was lovely. our room overlooked the adult pool and i really liked this. i enjoyed the poolside lunches and the option to take food back to the balcony. i also kept a bottle of wine in our fridge.

the hotel room included air conditioning and i found it very effective. the room was cleaned daily and towels were changed daily. breakfast had a variety of options and i found many tasty choices.
the music in the evenings was very loud and went on for a long time. soundproofing in the rooms was not good i could hear everything. the main pool was too deep for families to enjoy comfortably.

excellent stay

clean roomsfriendly staffdeep pool
the hotel is near the beach it takes only a few minutes to walk there. the rooms were really clean and the staff was very friendly. i really enjoyed the free wifi it worked great everywhere in the hotel.
i found the main pool too deep it was hard for families with children to use it together. there was only a small area where you could stand i wish it was shallower.
