What our guests says about facilities

The hotel offers amenities for your comfortable stay and unforgettable experiences

Great Culinary Experience

During my stay, I enjoyed the buffet restaurant immensely. The friendly staff were always attentive, and I particularly appreciated Devotha, who remembered my favourite drinks and seating preferences. The food variety was impressive, especially at breakfast with fresh juice options and an omelette station manned by the cheerful James. There were also multiple themed dinners, which kept the dining experience exciting each night!

Excellent Spa Services

I took advantage of the spa facilities during my stay and received a wonderful massage from Mariam and Lipyana. Their expertise really helped me unwind after a busy few days. I loved the tranquil atmosphere of the spa, which made my experience even more relaxing. It's a must-visit for anyone wanting to pamper themselves while on vacation!

Comfy and Clean Rooms

The room I stayed in was spacious and well-maintained. I enjoyed the air conditioning and the daily housekeeping service, which kept everything tidy. It even had thoughtful touches like fresh flowers daily, making the room feel inviting. I also appreciated that the room key worked consistently throughout my stay, which is a common hassle in hotels!

Fun Activities and Entertainment

I had a blast enjoying the hotel's evening entertainment. Each night featured different live music, creating a vibrant atmosphere. The various games and activities available at the bar kept me engaged and socializing with other guests. It was a lovely way to relax after a day in the sun, and I appreciated having both the pool and entertainment options right on-site.

Overall, my stay at the hotel had its ups and downs. The location is beautiful, with breathtaking ocean views and friendly staff who genuinely cared about our experience. However, the check-in process was lacking, and some of the room amenities could use improvement. The dining options were decent, but I wouldn't say they were anything to write home about. While it's a nice place overall, there are definitely areas that could enhance the overall experience.
