The resort its self is beautiful. The property needs to offer better parking especially for parents with prams being a child friendly property. The games room and arcade were a massive hit. The buffet breakfast was very nice and the actual food from the restaurant was nice too. Only fault would be the aircon was hard to control. Also the shower flooded with every single use as it was disability friendly. Overall a really nice stay.
