    This place suits me perfectly with beach access, a saltwater pool, and friendly staff who helped me with dining directions during my first stay. The kids club is a big hit! I'll definitely return for my business trip.

    great service but lacking nighttime activities

    The staff excelled in customer care. Victor’s attention to detail and Said’s welcoming approach made our stay exceptional.

    The evening entertainment options were minimal.

    spacious family room
    quiet family pool
    food variety

    The beach access and outdoor swimming pool made for perfect relaxation spots after a long day of exploring. The only thing I would tweak is the food variety. while it was decent, a few more exciting options would elevate the experience. 🌊

    very good service

    Highly Recommend for Couples Seeking Relaxation

    The service was very good, every time we walked anywhere, staff would greet us warmly like we were family. One night we dined at the seafood restaurant and the manager went out of his way to create a special dish just for us it was a moment that felt personal and nice.

    It wasn’t exactly inexpensive but honestly worth every penny.

    chill beach area
    nice view
    lovely outdoor space
    dirty outdated room

    A little paradise, but not perfect

    So we stayed for 10 nights in a superior room with a jacuzzi. The view was nice and the beach area was chill, but honestly, the room was kinda outdated and dirty. Had issues with towels too, only got one big one for two of us! The bar staff weren't the friendliest either. Food was okay but limited – repetitive meals and not much fruit in the afternoon. Still, the outdoor space is lovely!
