Rooms are very comfortable and spacious with large bathrooms and balconies. Pool and beach areas are beautiful and relaxing. Good variety of food at breakfast, service in the restaurants and bars was friendly but often rather slow. Limited dining options on site and not much else in the area other than a few other hotels and the golf course. ##### Daniel Stayed 4 nights in Apr 2024 Verified ### 8/10 Good #### Verified traveller 9 Mar 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Great service provided The room cleanliness and hotel service were excellent. However, the room aircon was not strong, managed to get the Technician to adjust for us. If the room comes with complimentary minibar will be a bonus point (it is quite common for a luxury hotel). ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/1B9209BCA5A9E9EBD20BDBFD5710D9F503095C291709975388769.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/270FECBE26B1A187645815F6B4795A6629E7D3B61709975389377.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/AE19DE24379BB421D4CC74919DA07372C021F1451709975389333.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/08BEFA2BD8464EF30520A2DD39F3222D962F79A21709975389684.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Verified traveller Stayed 1 night in Mar 2024 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### Terry 22 Mar 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort Excellent stay. ##### Terry Stayed 1 night in Mar 2024 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### Nur Ilyana 18 Mar 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Such a wonderfully beautiful place with excellent service.. ##### Nur Ilyana Stayed 1 night in Mar 2023 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### Janelle 25 Apr 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Excellent hotel Lovely room, clean and private.
