Very clean, well thought out rooms and staff were friendly, accommodating and the best thing about our stay. Well done to the staff from checking in to dinner and breakfast service. Brilliant
There were guests sitting outside their room, 2 doors down from ours, having a party until well past midnight. The noise was very bad. Our room was next to the restaurant & pool tables and this is a local Saturday night hangout, so the music also went on well past midnight. Ask for a room away from the restaurant if you want a quiet night!

Airconditioning in all rooms, change of towels daily
Bathroom needs a revamp. Roof looked really bad. would have preferred toilets that locked. Guard having to scan us in at each entry. Checked in guests should only have to do this once.

The staff is very friendly, and they try to go above and beyond to meet the clients’ expectations.
The place can be a bit too noisy, wouldn’t recommend if you prefer silent evenings and nights.

Very clean and neat rooms, nice and spacious, the shower is to die for I wanted to take it home! I loved that they have several pools, pity we could not use them because it rained the whole weekend. The bar area was a great chill spot too. Love that they bring breakfast to your room. Will definitely be back.
The bar closes a bit too early
