Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
When you arrive from the airport, you take a bus that drops people off at all the hotels and there is number of people to check in at one time and they did a very efficient job in doing this..Remii what’s very helpful and gave me great information on where I should go to see sites that I wanted to look at.Irina was especially nice also and check out is supposed to be at 11 o’clock and they’re going to allow me to stay till 2 o’clock because I don’t board my expedition ship until 4 o’clock, so that makes it perfect… and there was no charge for this!!! the breakfast buffet is excellent with a beautiful view!!! it’s simply located and very close to the ports that you board your ships on! Highly recommended
