the hotel design i found to be quite beautiful. the view was pleasant. i also appreciated the variety of facilities it had. i was happy with my time spent inside the hotel as it offered almost everything i needed. i hardly felt any need to go outside.
the workers at the hotel were not friendly. it seemed like i was bothering them even when they smiled. i didn't feel like i was at a luxury resort where people wanted to. leaving my room. i often smelled sewage.

prompt servicetheatre entertainmentconfusing layoutcold meal
The staff provided prompt buggy service when I called reception. The entertainment in the open-air theatre included high-quality dance production. (Anna, the singer, was amazing!)
The resort layout was confusing despite a map being provided. There was a lack of clear signage throughout the hotel. I dined at the buffet restaurant for dinner and breakfast, but both meals were served cold.

a nice stay!

friendly staffdelicious foodfine resortsuper clean cleanliness
I thought the staff were superb, all very friendly and polite, and nothing was too much trouble. The restaurant staff especially shined. the food and drinks were excellent, and i found the resort to be fine, particularly at night. the hotel kept everything spotlessly clean, a detail i value highly. i appreciated the resort being only 20 minutes from the airport.
the absence of allocated sunbeds made mornings a bit stressful. sometimes, i had to hunt for a spot before breakfast. this felt a little out of place at a resort of this caliber.

Really good Stay With Minor Hiccup

chic vibecool poolgood restaurantexcellent service
The app included all details I needed. All a la carte restaurants were booked for the week upon my arrival. The resort had an effortlessly chic vibe with cool pool areas. I found delicious cocktails at the Cabana bar with excellent service. The food at the restaurants was really good. The brunch restaurant stood out because they treated me very well.
The swim up rooms are not great if you like to tan. I found that there was sun only before noon, and there was shade later. As such, I couldn't use it often because the water was cold.
