Had a wonderful experience. Excellent amenities. Plenty of places near by to visit and activities to do. The Spa was a great bonus.

This resort is on the north of the island with a very clean beach, where you can see the scenic views of the mountain. It caters very well to families. Great amenities, friendly staff and other guests seem to be friendly too. My one criticism is that the food could have been better. The food was pretty average and options for non-pork eaters was very limited. The children's play centre called Wonderland was really good. The pools are very sizeable and our room had a private pool attached. Getting a beach towel required a deposit of €20 each, which I thought was unnecessary but best take your own. The town centre is only 10 minutes walk along the beach which was great and full of restaurants and bars, you can also reach there with a 10 minutes taxi driver but I'll recommend the walk along the beach to be honest. Overall a great place except for the food. I do accept as a non-pork eater this was quite unique to me but I've been to other places where we've been catered for much better.

Yin and Yang place. Most staff did the minimum that they could get away with while others seemed to enjoy their job and were helpful and attentive. For example, the staff on the main bar (one in particular) was friendly, welcoming, and always busy (mostly worked on his own), but when time permitted, he went to the tables and asked if he could get more drinks and cleared tables etc. The pool bar always had 2 staff who were never busy and made you feel like you are an inconvenience and were interrupting their conversation. Although they had practically nothing to do, they never left the bar to ask anyone if they wanted drinks, or remove empties. The main restaurant had the same mix of helpful and unhelpful staff. It was buffet style with a reasonably mix of food, not the best quality, but then again we didn't pay a lot to stay there all-inclusive, so they did the best that they could on a budget. Two downsides were there was no food when we arrived for late check-in (snacks for late arrival was part of the deal), and you just couldn't get anything to eat after 9.30pm. You have the option to book a table at the beach restaurant. Don't bother with the Chinese restaurant, the food was either not available, and what was available was horrible, and the server was very abrupt and not the least bit attentive. i.e never even asked about drinks. The hotel and grounds were well kept but the rooms could do with a little work. A kettle with tea and coffee but nowhere to plug it in, to turn the lights on, we had to move the bed because the switch was behind the bedpost, etc. Not really anywhere to go out and about, but we didn't intend going out on this holiday and there was entertainment in the evening.

Thank you to all the team. Staff are friendly and work very hard. We enjoyed a lovely week here. I would return and recommend the hotel. The beach is very safe for young children as it has a gradual slope to the sea. Also the beach has a nice breeze. It was easier to find a sun bed on the beach than the pool. If you snooze you lose, so be up early! There is lovely shade in the garden near the beach if you cannot find a parasol. We were unlucky with the weather but enjoyed 2 perfect hot days. The gardens are beautiful. A lovely relaxing trip.

Amazing experience and would definitely visit again. Love the entertainment. Rado and team animation is a great addition to this place. Marius and the lady making the omlette in the main restaurant are genuinely very nice and compliment the service. The whole place was clean, daily housekeeping, amazing staffs and to be able to have your own private pool area was very nice for our kids. Our children loved staying their so much, wanted to stay longer and we heard the same from other people who visited. Definitely recommend this place.
