"Lovely place lovely people. If you want to get away from the mob this is the place. Beautiful setting. Lovely food. Reception were very helpful as were all the staff. Only negatives I have are the Villas are up a big hill so have a car or be fit. Also the pool at the villa wasn’t ready (on and cleaned) on the Saturday we arrived, wasn’t sorted until we said something on the Monday. But was sorted very quickly."
"Great resort with huge pool and the beach nearby. There is a lot of dining options in the area and the location is not too far from famous beaches, cities and hikes."
"A very comfortable hotel with exceptionally friendly and helpful staff. On arrival, my wife and I were given VIP treatment. The hotel is ideal for a family. The slight downside is that meals are buffet-style, hence they are not served hot. "

"Generaly, it is a good place to stay. The only problem we found some ants inside the room and we saw one ant in the bed.
We reported it to the management, they just sent someone to do further cleaning.
I know the hot weather is a good environment for ants but it should not be inside the rooms.
They need to treat ants properly to keep them outside the rooms."
