Beautiful beach
Beautiful gardens and comfortable rooms. The restaurant choices were great and the all inclusive package was exactly what we needed. The best part is the beach - the pool was nothing special but it’s no wonder when there’s a crystal clear, clean beach right at the hotel. I’d stay here again without hesitation.

Beautiful location
Beautiful location & gardens around the hotel are excellent. The bathroom needed an update in the room and very small. We also found toilets near the evening main bar not clean and definitely in need of update. Staff were very good but the fact it is 5 star quite shocked you could not have all cocktails. Some you had to pay extra.
