We spent five nights in a standard 7th-floor double room. The room was bright, modern (generically appealing), soundproof, spacious and comfortable, accommodating my and my mum's needs. Although, personally, the bed (a queen rather than double) was more on the firmer side for us. The en-suite was lovely and sizeable, with a shower (walk-in) and toilet entered through one main door but segregated by a sliding door, which provided us with enough privacy and convenience. There was an entryway before you entered the main room/bedroom, which was unexpected and significant to have—it made the space feel like a small apartment. Our balcony side-viewed the ocean/poolside and Main Street (pleasant noise, no traffic congestion whatsoever), which provided picturesque views and the most calming/relaxing sounds from both ends, especially in the evenings. The balcony was a great size and comfortably accommodated us with room to spare. The dividers were reasonable but weren’t fully opaque. Fortunately, our neighbours didn't use their balcony area, so we saw and heard very little from either side. The facilities in the room were sufficient for us, in good condition, easy to access and worked well, and the cleanliness of the entire room was spotless to the eye. The hotel's facilities and communal areas were grand and plentiful. An abundance of areas/chill-out spots both indoors and out, which cater to both large and small gatherings and different view intakes.

Take a superior room - the terrace and sea views are certainly worth it. We liked the location - pretty local an quiet. The hotel has nice pools ad gardens, the public beach is small, but close and nice. The breakfast buffet is good, the dinner OK, but good value. Sometimes the hotel seems to have issues with bad smells in corridors.

Lovely hotel. Great facilities. Sadly the air con doesn't come on until April and we stayed during a hot week in March. So the nights were either too hot or too noisy with the patio door open. Still highly recommended.

Brilliant for families and gambling addicts.
This hotel does all inclusive which brings it own problems. This hotel is brilliant for families and gambling addicts The food is very good if they did better bacon and cooked tomatoes it would be perfect and it’s nice to see they have two microwaves. The hotel is in a good location with bus stops right outside plus the free bets you get to go into the casino is a nice touch.

Really liked the hotel room was perfect. I do think the staff need lessons on politeness . As a family we were playing tennis , and one of the sports staff came onto the court with six others and started playing basketball . This is fine as it was an organised sport for residents , but all it needed was for him to say excuse us but we need the court instead of barging in on our game . The reception staff could of been more helpful . The cleaner was charming .

Nice clean hotel with friendly staff. There was a good adults only swimming pool but on the downside nowhere near enough sun beds or shade. The food was good but they didn’t have labels for vegetarian food and put meat/fish next to salad items so they got contaminated by guests not using separate tings. Would have been nice to have an adult only dining area

Would highly recommend
Place is very nice, nice location however the beach is so rocky so you have to walk about a block to get to a better area for swimming. Rooms were very nice and spacious as we got a free upgrade to a junior suite. TV in the room wasn’t working, or we didn’t know how turn it on, but honestly we didn’t care as the view from the huge balcony was amazing. The restaurant had a great view to the see, and food was good, B-, however the selections where very good.

A shadow of the past
When I said a shadow of the past I mean it. I remember this hotel since its inauguration and saw all the different eras it went thru. Nowadays the clientele standard has declined to a point where the hotel caters towards low budget tourist. Every one has the right to travel and enjoy their time but with dignity. This is not a 4 stars but barely 3. The staff at the reception desk couldn't care less if you are or were a previous customer. And best of all when they see that you booked thru any agency like Expedia they will put you in the worst room available. A real pity. I went with the idea of organizing my son's wedding there but NO WAY!.

Only a short 4 day trip but wish it was longer as we had a great time. The entertainment team were probably the most engaging team I have ever met on any of my travels. They really made us feel welcome from day 1 informing us of all the activities, facilities & entertainment shows available at the hotel. We were always invited to participate so a massive thank you to Sol + Lydia who really made our stay a great one. I will really miss the 10am + 12pm song + dance around the pool, done everyday as it was fun and something that all the team and guests joined in.
