amazing hotel with excellent service and spacious villas!!!

The resort features well kept areas and convenient parking. i was upgraded to a large two-bedroom villa, providing ample space for my family. the beds were super comfortable, and the villa came fully equipped with a washing machine and dishwasher. breakfast included fresh orange juice every day. The pastry variety was AMAZING!!!
The gym had limited equipment. The cardio machine was out of service. it wasn't a major issue for me, but i hope they can update it .

Mixed Feelings About My Stay

The hotel boasts a beautiful setting, a feature I did appreciate.
I encountered several issues. The advertised on-site restaurant was closed, SUCH a disappointment. The pool area needed better upkeep. The sun loungers were visibly dirty.

Mixed Feelings About This Hotel

The gym had some decent equipment for a quick workout session.
The evening buffet was not great quality. The food seemed like leftovers and I was quite disappointed. Also the pool area could use some upgrades as the sun loungers were dirty and the shadesails looked quite old.
