My stay at the hotel was overall enjoyable. The beach is stunning with white sand, and the hotel staff made the experience even better with their attentiveness and friendliness. However, I found the dining options to be varied in quality, with some meals being great while others were just okay. The amenities offered, especially the water sports, were disappointing as many were not available during my stay.

I had a truly amazing stay at the hotel, surrounded by beautiful gardens and right on the stunning beach. The staff was incredibly warm and made our experience truly memorable.

I had an unforgettable stay at this hotel, celebrating our 30th wedding anniversary. The location is fantastic, and the staff went above and beyond to make our experience special with thoughtful decorations in our room. The dining options were really good, especially the themed nights, and the beach was absolutely beautiful. However, the lack of direct flights and a small complaint about the bacon could be points to note for future travelers.

I had an absolutely wonderful time at the hotel, with its large grounds and plenty of sun loungers available on the beach. The staff were incredibly attentive and always greeted me with a smile. Breakfast was served until 9:30, which was a bit early for my taste, but the food options were generally very good, particularly at the Indian and BBQ nights. One downside was the persistent locals on the beach, who were quite friendly but could be a little insistent when trying to sell tours or services. Overall, I would highly recommend this hotel and I can’t wait to return next year!
