Overall our stay was good once we moved rooms due to daily complaint of the w.c not working! Pools great! Gardens very well looked after! The rooms are a little tired and could do with some work but kept clean! Buffet pretty good considering the amount of people! Entertainment is very poor!

They gave a random person from a different resort a key to my room because they “were looking for me” and food was horrible The room was clean and nice. Hire more people that speak English instead of having people look for there and room for 30 minutes and staff is unable to help do better.

The place is nice but extremely big everything is a trek. The water park is awesome and pools are extremely nice the rooms are subpar and the food is good just doesn’t change in variety from day to day too much. The most disappointing thing was the night time entertainment for families. If there was anything it didn’t start till 8/830 and normally was just a singer or something. i just wish it was more of an inclusive vibe and fun activities i guess like were use to.
