Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
The staff were all very approachable and helpful. The whole site is very clean. The beach is just outside in front, which is super. The complimentary drinks in Real Bar were also nice. There are some not so great aspects, such as limited selections for breakfast (but considering we went during the low season, it's more or less ok with us), and simply no wifi connection at all beyond the hall way in our room. The latter bit is a bit unacceptable and disappointing for a five star resort.

We chose this resort to celebrate my birthday with friends and it was a fantastic choice. We stayed in a 2 bedroom villa which had plenty of space and was perfect for us - the pictures are very accurate. It was a short walk to the main building, and then further to the beach, but the property is well maintained so it always felt like a pleasant stroll. The staff were all very friendly, housekeeping was very responsive when we needed anything, and the hotel even arranged for a very thoughtful recognition on my birthday - an unexpected surprise and very well received! I would be happy to stay here again.
