Disappointing stay
Our stay was very uncomfortable due to the air conditioning in the main lounge-kitchen room not working and all of the facilities that we were looking forward to not working. The room we paid extra for with the Jacuzzi had the hot tub thermostat broken and stuck on 40 degrees when it was a heat wave,and could not be used. Also there was no working clothes dryer and it had rained three of the days. The furnishings were extremely old and chipped the couch was disgusting to sit on. We didn't receive enough towels for the five people and then we're told we're going to be charged extra for towels for the hot tub which we could not use. Overall an extremely disappointing family holiday that would paid a premium price for and it was a let down.

Very disappointing
Very disappointing stay all round - we booked & paid for an oceanview HIGH floor room but were only put on the 3rd floor. We requested a QUIET room and were put in a room directly over the busy & noisy road. When we called to see if there were any other rooms available as we were very disappointed with our room the receptionist was rude & condescending and offered no help or support at all. She actually said 'well your room does have a view' and did nothing else. Yes the view was nice but not stunning and our room was not very oceanview OR HIGH at all. It looked nothing like the photo beside the 'oceanview and high floor' apartment on the website. The unit was also very old and quite dated - especially for the high price to stay there. Also both air cons were not working when we checked in (our checkin was also very late, even though we had also requested an early checkin), so the whole stay - which was meant to be a special treat for us turned out to be very disappointing!
