Our stay was wonderful, with the hotel located just steps from the beach and surrounded by lush gardens. The rooms were spacious and well-maintained, with stunning views that made our experience even better. The amenities provided were excellent, especially for families. However, the dining options, while varied, could benefit from a bit more creativity and freshness. Overall, it felt like a great value for a relaxing getaway.

The hotel offers spacious and comfortable rooms with a great view of the pool and easy access to the beach. There were some issues with the dining options, as the buffet was quite disappointing, while the pool area was beautiful yet cold. Overall, it’s a decent choice, but improvements in the food quality would enhance the experience significantly.
