Rooms at the Novotel appeared to be recently renovated and clean. Bathroom was very small but very clean. Rooms were nice and spacious and clean as well. But there were these tiny bugs that were crawling around, and our AC literally leaked on the floor. They came and sprayed for the bugs and put some towels under the AC. The staff were all nice and pleasurable. The exterior of the property looked terrible though. Very dirty and old and run down. It was an okay stay for the short time we were there but I wouldn't stay again.

Great facilities, great food. Really good family resort. Rooms are a little small and marginally dated. Smallest inroom fridge I have ever seen. I would still return to this resort despite the rooms being on the less desired side.

This resort is absolutely beautiful, the room was great. Bed was very comfortable. The only problem was the bar fridge doesnt get cold at all. The property itself is very well taken care of, always nice and clean. Housing keeping staff were amazing always asking if we needed anything. The food in the restaurant was fantastic!! Best steak ive ever had. It was a little strange that you dont get table service in the restaurant, you have to go outside to the bar to order food. The pool is really nice, but we were very disappointed that we paid for a pool view room and didn't get it. But over all we had a great holiday at this beautiful resort.

Excellent for families with kids. Hotel does need a revamp / renovation. Bathroom room paint peeling off due to moisture and water seeping out from the shower as tile slope for drain was not inclined much. A/c stoped working on the last night, it was hot an muggy. Tried to call the reception no answer but have mentioned this upon check out. They did apologise.

After initial check in only to be told our room was not ready. They will let us know when it is. Over an hour later and asking 3 times, they advised room still is not ready. Eventually gave us another room. By the pool day 3 and tables were filthy. Asked a bar attendant for a cloth to clean them. Was hand a cloth. Wouldn't have been so annoying if 3 staff weren't standing there talking. We'll clean the tables for you. Overall a good place and can only hope our stay was a few off days for staff.

The staff were all wonderful and couldn't help you enough. The pool area, whilst extremely kid friendly, was still able to cater for adults with a good bar area. Getting a lounge around the pool, can be challenging with people just leaving towels on the lounge for hours at time to reserve them, when someone else could have been using them. Sometimes you just have to move the towels and use the lounge. Rooms are a good size, and all conveniently located to the pool. We were in a family group with adult children and grandchildren, it proved the ideal resort for us. The breakfast was also good.

Excellent resort with kids. The pool is magnificent , with the sandy beach. Swim up bar is a bonus. It’s great you can order food even at the swim up bar. The resort staff very helpful and very friendly. The breakfast buffet is excellent, so much to chose from . The lady who is greeting you is super lovely. Rooms are clean and perfect for a good night sleep beds are extra comfortable. Everything is wonderful in this hotel so close to the esplanade like 5 min walk. Only issue I had, the let the public to walk in and swim in the pool, by 10 am there was no available chairs and most people who reserved the sun beds had their own towels from outside I even asked one of them they told me they can just walk in while the paying customers don’t get a sunbed, while I paid over $200 for a night. Due to the public traffic on Saturday the pool was hectic. They need to respect the customers and close the public out who just wish to walk in for a swim. Otherwise I loved the resort would return again
