Rooms. No coffee machine. Furniture outdated. No complimentary biscuits. Exhaust fan faulty. Aircon excellent. Tv installed too high on wall. Shower head is terrible and drainage for vanity and bath is very poor. Brekky Area. Staff took too long to clean spillages. Fans not turned on and with the extreme humidity not comfortabl to eat at all. Everyone was dripping with sweat. Including staff. Food was way too salty. Hash browns not fresh. Not a range of hot food available. Same menu daily. Range of Activities were excellent however equipment such as stinger suits snorkels masks were very poor condition with rips in the suits. Pools were dirty and water way too hot. Gym is excellent. Service is good with helpful and friendly staff. Would i recommend it to family members? Probably not.

Resort should provide better customer service since many people go there to relax and have a good holiday. I went there with my other 2 friends, we had to constantly asked for extra towels, water glass & etc even though room was booked for 3 people. Quality and quantity of food was very low for all the meals, eve ice cream weren't tasting like ice cream, felt like we were provided with all the left over food with very high price.
