The bathtub was fantastic it had water jets on the side. The showers were also quite easy and good to use. Unfortunately the private pool was only cleaned on the last day, also because we had rain. Only the villas had private pools. The public pools were very nice they also had a hottub which felt very relaxing to be in"
