The room was spotless, hotel pools were lovely, great food and helpful staff. Breakfast was lovely, lots of choice. The only thing that annoyed us was the many people queuing to sit outside to eat there breakfast..the staff allowed them to gather literally over guests who had just started their breakfast, so it felt rushed. Plenty of spaces inside or the staff should of managed the queue if people are persistent on eating outside. Felt uncomfortable.

The hotel is new and pretty, however two situations happened that made our experience bad. Unfortunately I fell one of the stairs of the hotel, the deck stairs is pretty narrow and extremely dark. I was provided with no assistance nor follow up. In addition to that, I booked a 1 night stay through expedia as a gift to my brother and sister-in-law. Unfortunately, at the time of the check-out they charged my brother another night, saying that the one through expedia wasn’t paid. Even with proof of payment they did not yet return the money to my brother who paid extra. It is being more than 2 weeks now and we continue to wait for the refund.
