Excellent location & good car parking. Very large, spacious and well equipped suite. Excellent staff & lovely swimming pools. My only slight criticism would be that the room carpet was probably in need of an upgrade, but otherwise very good.
Staff are great and very helpful. The hotel could use some maintenance. The lift had a bad smell in it and stained carpet. But it's a good place to stay.
The room was well kept, very clean and the spa was perfect. Not too hot and very spacious. The air conditioning worked well and there were blonds on the window that kept the sun from heating the room up too much.
We booked a three bedroom residence. It was so clean and welcoming. Staff were very friendly. Great location at the waterfront. We relaxed very much. We got a last check-out free of charge which was a bonus. Would definitely stay again.

The room was great, nice atomsphere and good location with nice views from level 3.
This place was bliss - everything was so clean & comfortable & especially lovely & quiet. Aswell within walking distance to shops, restaurants or a quiet lake side walk - 10/10 ♥️
The room and.staff were excellent and the parking facilities were one reason I chose this accomodation
I was a little disappointed in the food options as the options were not what I expected for a resort.
