I had a mixed experience at the resort. While the location is stunning with easy beach access and great pools, the service could use some serious improvement. My room was spacious and modern, but there were a few maintenance issues that detracted from my stay. Overall, it was a decent value for money but with several areas that need attention.

My week at the resort was absolutely fantastic! I was pleasantly surprised to receive a room upgrade with a stunning ocean view and a spacious balcony. The staff was remarkably attentive, especially at the specialty restaurant where I enjoyed an exquisite meal. The location is perfect, just a short stroll to the beach with lovely bars and restaurants nearby. However, I did encounter some service issues as the reception didn't cater to a particular request, which was a bit disappointing.

I had a lovely time at the resort, appreciating the great location and spacious villas. The outdoor deck offered stunning views, and the housekeeping staff was accommodating. However, the open concept design without air conditioning made it hard to cope with the heat and bugs, which was a downside. Also, while the pool area was nice, the lack of pool service was disappointing.
