10/10 Excellent

We had a fab stay here! Arranged them to pick us up at the airport which was seamless. We arrived at the hotel quite late, around 23:30 and they were still welcoming and even upgraded our room. The pool area is lovely, just limited sun loungers. Breakfast was also great with something for everyone!
