Our room was a decent size with balcony. Great shower & big bed!! Pool area was great, just what we needed to chill for a few days. Walkable to the Bouganvilla shopping centre with designer outlets, restaurants and pubs like the fabulous Cheeky Pup!! And a short drive from all the great beach restaurants like Maria’s, Julia’s, Izzy’s etc. Staff were all lovely and so helpful - many thanks!

Nice hotel with good breakfast,clean rooms, nice pool and gym. Difficult to walk anywhere because of where it's located. It was very noisy because of a rowdy group of obnoxious, drunk golfers that kept us up all night.
