Nice spacious room, relaxing pool, and small beach access
The staff is incredibly accommodating, making you feel like an exclusive guest. Their breakfast buffet is simply delicious. The pool is clean, and the view is incredibly relaxing.
Huge clean room with comfy bed. Friendly helpful staff. The breakfast buffet was awesome and varied every day. We had reservations both the New Year’s Eve dinner and countdown. Great food, entertainment and an impressive fireworks display right in front of us. We will be staying here again.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities
Courteous staff, pleasant stay, excellent amenities. Location down a long path so if wishing to leave premises and eat out, Reception will book transport out and then it is easy to hail tricycle on the way back.
After a bit of a mix up at check in we were offered a room upgrade to a Seaview room. Which was very much appreciated and was stunning !
Service throughout the hotel was very welcoming and professional. The resort was very clean and food at the restaurant was delicious and tast.
It was low season so was rather quiet which we enjoyed.
Pool and beachfront kept very clean and inviting for a swim. We enjoyed our stay.
If you just want a nice quiet place to relax, this is the place. The staff was great and the food was too.

No hair dryer in the room, One of the walls wasn't finished being painted in the shower head was old & broken, the toilet didn't work well. The food was at best average.
On a positive note the staff was amazing and friendly. Unfortunately I would not recommend this hotel unless it was a discount price. Hopefully they can rectify all the things should be done every day.
Sincerely
Thomas A Lewis
