Travelocity Verified Review
"Absolutely fantastic! The hotel and our room was spotless and as soon as we walked in we were welcomed and made to feel special. Our room was incredible, so spacious and comfortable. Every single staff member at the hotel could not have done more to make our holiday unforgettable, everyone went above and beyond, were polite and friendly. Food was delicious and there was so much variety, the restaurants were fantastic with the best steak ever!! The pools made it feel like we were in complete paradise, overlooking the beach, plenty of sun loungers, brilliant entertainment and fantastic staff always there to get us a cocktail!"
