"The staff was phenomenal, friendly and welcoming with a high level of hospitality and helpfulness truly made us feel good . One thing to make that 4 stars rating jump to 5 stars … is the upkeep of the room , i felt it had some old furniture and some items really didn’t belong to the place (like having a coffee table as a bed side table) "

"Fantastic location- had been worried it may be a little noisy bit it was absolutely no issue at all. Super comfy room, best sheets and shower ever!! Used the pool area which is quite small but enough, and enjoyed breakfast outside most mornings- lovely. Great assistance from all the team there but stand out colleague Shane- great tips and recommendations and a really genuine nature about him. Would absolutely revisit!"
