Good location and a great swimming pool.
Good location and great swimming pool. Room was fine, although it was obviously built for self-catering and thus it was disappointing that they had removed the fridge. With the hot weather this would have been a very welcome addition to the room.

The stay was fantastic and made so by a guy named James. He is truly an asset to the hotel and should be valued by his employers. He went out of his way to accommodate my requests and made me feel like I was his only client. I believe he is only there for about 2 weeks, which I found hard to believe as he seems to be so clued up on the hotel, the people, and generally everything related. James is surely a superstar at the resort and would be one of the reasons I return!!!

We received a warm welcome. Rooms were well cleaned and kept in good condition. Everything we needed was avaiable for usage. I was especially amazed that even the hair dryer which was not secured was still there. Gardens and pool areas are in splendid condition. Location is perfect for exploring surrounding areas and nearby amenities.

Great location and well laid out resort. Staff showed us half way to our room??? Very nice room with kitchen, dining room and lounge with large balcony. Problem was room smelt of damp. A humidifier was put in the room to mask the smell but it just made it worse. On top of this the bed had a torn sheet. Hotel was not busy, why give a substandard damp room?
