The pool and room was comfy. Everything was great walking distance to the pier for boat tours and lagoon. Helpful staff. Our flight wasn’t until late evening so they kept our luggage and gave us the pool access, some drink vouchers and for showers to freshen up. suggestion to keep people’s luggage on hold behind secure doors away from anyone accessing from the foyer. Fantastic stay.

Very good pool area, needed a bit more music, but understand it’s close to rooms area. The Gym needs more weights, towels. Breakfast is good, but not much variety if you stay for longer period. Bed and pillows, wasn’t the best for us. Bathroom doors didn’t close properly aswell.
