Room needs updating, the wooden area in bathroom is a bacteria fest! Often had to ask for towels, cleaning of rooms could be better. Towels never smelt fresh, minimal toiletries , food was awful covered in flies, as all inclusive you still had to pay for certain drinks such as bottled water, coke, fanta there own version is that cheap lollipop flavour rubbish

Lovely resort with beautiful pools and a nice beach in front too. I was so very impressed by the staff. They work hard and really make every effort to ensure you have a great stay, whether making you a yummy cocktail, serving you food or helping you to move deckchairs around the pool. Rooms are spacious with nice balconies or terraces. I had one overlooking the sea as I didn’t want to hear any pool noise. I’d recommend this, or a garden view, if you don’t want to hear nighttime music. I had a couple of issues sorted out quickly after speaking to the manager and assistant manager. I had lots of massages and highly recommend visit the spa, although it could do with some renovations as it’s quite scruffy, with paint peeling off the entrance. It’s worth walking up the beach to Solomon’s for a sunset drink. I also had a few super meals around the town. I’d definitely return.
The pools that you can only swim in if you select one of those rooms. But the main pool is also lovely.
Lovely foalson the beach each evening.
