I’ve been visiting the resort for over 20 years, and while my past experiences were great, this stay highlighted some areas needing attention. The friendly staff and the lovely pool area are definite highs, but the rooms are showing their age and the breakfast options are limited. Overall, it's a decent stay if you consider the location and friendliness of the team, but the potential to be a top-notch resort is hindered by the current state of the facilities.

I had a mixed experience at this resort. While the location was convenient for nightlife, the rooms definitely need some refurbishment to bring back their charm. The staff were generally pleasant, but some areas felt a bit neglected. The breakfast selection was limited, which was a letdown, although the pool area was enjoyable. Overall, I would consider coming back if some upgrades were made.

The location is a bit away from the main town center, but it's a quick 10-minute walk or a short shuttle ride, which I appreciated. However, be prepared for some noise from the nearby nightlife.

I’ve been visiting this resort for over 20 years, and while I’ve enjoyed many stays here, it seems to be showing its age. The staff are wonderful, and the pool area is lovely, but the rooms need a good refurb. Breakfast choices are limited, and the location can be noisy with nearby market sounds at night. All in all, with some investment in updates, this place could shine again.
