7/10 Good! (58 reviews)

Bed springs poking us in our sides all night, beds definitely worn out. Fridge didn’t work correctly resulting in Luke warm drinks. Room door was unsafe. As the automatic shut shock was hair triggered and slammed both my wife and I into the door jam. However, I am grateful for the stay, staff and the overall facility. Blessed to experience the adventure and beautiful journey. Loved all of the people.

We loved our stay! Beautiful location, and view on the bay. Love the tennis access, the pool (my kids loved it as it enables a lot of games in the waterfall etc), the beach ! Very clean and quiet! We hope to come back!
