Good stay overall

spacious room comfortable bed varied choices crowded pool worn areas costly transport

The room was spacious and very clean. The bed was comfortable I must say. Breakfast offered a wide variety of choices and cuisines. I also appreciated the proximity to the beach. It made access very easy.

The pool was quite crowded with children. Securing a spot was a challenge. I also noticed that some of the outdoor areas was a bit worn. transportation to other areas could be costly since the hotel location is quite distant.

i liked the clean room. the hotel provided fresh towels daily. the minibar was stocked. the bed was so comfy. the housekeeping service was on point. they was quick to respond to requests. the staff even left a nice chocolate on the pillows each night. i found this so cute.

i did have some struggle finding a free sunbed near the pool one afternoon. maybe more sunbeds would helped.

good variety cooking station nice beach

everything felt special! the breakfast had good variety! the live cooking station also prepared the orders i requested. the pool was very nice and spacious, it was easy to relax. the beach was steps away from the hotel and very clean.

the elevators were a bit slow during peak hours! i sometimes waited for a while. it's minor but it added a bit of inconvenience to my day.
