8/10 Very good

Beautiful location and lots of nature in and around the resort. My only real complaint is that the food was disappointing.
Kamsin Joanne, 5-night trip

2/10 Poor

Please reconsider stay- horrible stay. The buildings could be so beautiful but they have left it to literally fall apart. We were apparently in the new/upgraded wing yet building fallong apart, dirty and water stopped working for period of time. Garbage left around for our three say stay in corridors and pool area and only half restaurants are open and those that are offer poor quality food. The breakfast utensils were on kleenex papers and the Chinese restaurant smelled like smoke with stained table clothes and chairs. The beach and ocean is only redeeming factor but not worth the stay. I would say 2 star hotel rating. Consider rebooking elsewhere.
Sofia J, 3-night trip

6/10 Good

A very mixed review! I have now stayed here on five different occasions however it has noticeably in disrepair and badly maintained after Covid. My stay this time was not great but on my previous stays 2006-2018 it was great therefore I will hope this is purely down to the effects of covid and will improve in the near future.

Their food was TERRIBLE, TV broken and so loud!!!
Their food was TERRIBLE! The breakfast has limited number of food that doesn't even look good. And I had to return the food when I ordered some calamari and burger to the pool because it was just TERRIBLE! I understand they would have financial problems due to COVID19 but that doesn't mean they should offer such rubbish food to their guests. The location is far from the downtown, takes about an hour to get to the city but I had to go there every day for food, because there're not many restaurants neither nearby the resort. Also, the TV in the room was broken that their technicians couldn't even fix. Then purchase new TV for the guests!!! Also, the corridor was so loud and you can hear everybody walking by. You just can't deep sleep while you're on vacation. I don't think I will go there ever again.
