A bit overcrowd, some restaurants are not always available without an early reservation. Cleaning is excellent but more than once the staff forgot to replace all the towels. Surroundings are safe and walkable but in a day or two you can easily visit everything there. Apart from that, we really loved everything else, especially the warm staff. We would like to come back one day.

The staff were extremely helpful and kind. They went out of their way to accommodate any of our requests. The food in the buffet was very good and had a lot of options. The Japanese restaurant was excellent. The entertainment staff were very approachable and humurous. We really had a wonderful stay! The only thing that you should know is that this is really a family oriented resort with many young children. As two adults, that part wasn't favourable, but for a family with small children, this is the place to go!

The food was excellent and we loved our room. Our only objections were that the indoor pool was a little cold. Even stranger, the jacuzzi was cold, which obviously surprised not only ourselves but other guests we watched trying to use it. We tried to see the evening entertainment and it was ok for a short time but it was very distracting and annoying to have all of the little kids dancing and running around in front of the stage, even thought it was later in the evening. The kids were fine being in attendance, even though they would not have enjoyed the music, but it would be helpful if, at the beginning of the entertainment , someone asked that everyone (including children) stay away from the space in front of the stage. While we watched it was a total day care/playground in front of the stage with kids racing each other around the area and back and forth continually. Just a suggestion. I noticed several other people, especially older people, leave early because of this.

Hotel is nice for families, quite crowded when busy. We travelled in early October and the pool bar was closed, even though it seemed like high season still. Although the hotel is kept clean it has a weird "toilet small", specially in our room and on level -1. Also, we asked for late check-out since our flight was at 8pm and traveling with a baby, they said they were fully booked, which was not the case since you could book rooms online. I then asked again and said I would pay extra if needed and they suddenly weren't fully booked!

Generally a nice resort for families, would have preferred an adult only section and pool. Coffee and tea were from a machine vs fresh and were only available at breakfast unless you went to bar to obtain. No coffee maker in room. Drinks were self serve, would have been nice to have it served.
