The rooms were really spacious and the housekeeping service kept it quite clean. There are several pools available including some for adults only. The included breakfast has a buffet style and tasted very good.
The main pool was closed for two of the four days I stayed. It was disappointing. I requested a one-hour late checkout to accommodate a massage, but it was denied! I had to cancel the massage, a loss for both sides.
